Are there currently any Substack replacements that integrate with ActivityPub?
So I'm currently looking for a Substack substitute for taking donations.
I'd want it to feature a blog (and preferably newsletters too) that include a mix of publicly-accessible posts, as well as posts that are only visible to donors.
And ideally, I want it to also integrate with ActivityPub too.
That might mean a Fediverse post is automatically generated when a new blog post is published. Or potentially the publicly visible blog posts are published in full to the Fediverse.
Now, I know there are a few donations platforms that can handle the first part, such as Ghost and Ko-Fi.
There are also blogging platforms such as WriteFreely/Write.as and Micro.blog that integrate with the Fedi.
And in theory you could do both with a WordPress blog and number of plugins, some paid. But especially with paid plugins, that's likely to get quite expensive quickly. (Not to mention some of the questionable things that have happened at Automattic in recent weeks.)
But are there any platforms out there that support both?
Or is the best option at this stage just to get a Ko-Fi/Ghost account for the donations and donor-only posts, with a separate micro.blog or write.as account for the publicly accessible posts?
Automattic is planning to sell user data from its commercial Wordpress hosting service for ML training. Don’t host it with them if you don’t like that.
Of course, people trying to train models are very likely to run their own scraper bots and might suck up anything you publish on the web anywhere.
@TheConversationUS "Like the outlaws Robin Hood and Al Capone, will #Trump become larger in legend than he was in life? "
I've sensed that the outlaw hero archetype of the American collective unconscious, in Jungian terms, has been activated, since vigilantes in cowboy hats were able to defy and other the Obama administration at Malheur (which means misfortune in French) in early 2016. From here in Japan I sensed a disturbance in the force, as it were, and my foreboding has been more than realized as Trump 'rode the whirlwind' and permitted repressed Christians to be their worst true selves, and held Open House for Russia in the White House.
The evil that the outlaw 'hero' does gets lost or laundered in the mythologizing that makes them seem larger than life, legendary. Americans with their collective legacy of the Wild West, Roaring 20s, and notorious con men, are particularly susceptible, as Trump has shown, to following the Pied Piper, or being led into temptation.
The BBC News Verify team has published their first article using a new open media provenance technology called C2PA that we've been working on for the past three years.
This shows where media comes from and how it’s been edited - like an audit trail or a history.
Normally you use a separate AP to do that. BSDs don’t normally have good support for WiFi cards. Consumer WiFi cards aren’t really meant for use as APs anyway.
Please help, as I have not gotten anything and I'm really trying to get things taken care of and need some help.
I am a disabled non-binary individual who unable to work, and I need to raise funds to buy medications not covered by insurance and cat food/litter. I've got doctor's appointments this coming week I need to be able to get to. I'm trying to at least get $50 in the short term so I can get my bus pass before the cutoff tomorrow.
