This is the way 👏 nostr:note1v7uklak2h58xtyxw5vv70lettsh40vulylyqfqgzsjnfzqkgq9qsmjr66q
Please do! We gotta let Ghost know.
Just because the activity pub people are loud doesn’t mean they’re right
So I answered the form and went off.
Figured it’s worth sharing here because I will prob die on the hill that Ghost is going down the wrong road with ActivityPub, which I give two 💩 about.
GHOST AND NOSTR WOULD BE A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN.
Hear me out.
NOSTR IS THE ONLY THING BENEFICIAL!
It’s a superior protocol. Activitypub solves nothing. Have nostr and ghost integrate so I can zap on ghost. Right now, I have a Mash plug in and post links to Alby and ZBD. Make it so I can log onto my ghost dashboard and see my activity from nostr. Make it so my every ghost post automatically publishes to Nostr.
Integrate these two. Integrate them all, who cares? I just want Nostr and Ghost to work together.
Furthermore, I work in social media for tech companies. Part of what I do is follow social media and tech news so my colleagues don’t have to. I don’t miss much in this ridiculous intersection of SaaS and social. That said…
ActivityPub, Mastodon, Threads etc is all trendy. It’s noise.
Nostr is building something more permanent.
ActivityPub is full of GTM slush 🙄 we won’t be talking about it in 5 years.
No one knows where Nostr will be in 5 years. But the goals are far different.
Nostr devs want to build long-term. The goals are freedom, free speech, never having an algo, making actual friends (ya know, being social in reality), and OF COURSE using the lightning network for value 4 value payments.
On Nostr, there is a future.
On ActivityPub, it feels like 1999 Silicon Valley, like the frat boys are making another Friendster so they can be the next Google and put ping pong tables in the cafeteria. 🏓
Let’s NOT do that again. nostr:npub1wmr34t36fy03m8hvgl96zl3znndyzyaqhwmwdtshwmtkg03fetaqhjg240 nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m nostr:note1a6av5puatevd9exvt5ahdlu4yddcjla06t69kazjpj4gtgjd38cqptwy6q
Yes, if Ghost is going to push somehow into <
And I should be able to see interaction on my ghost dashboard from nostr and vice versa…
Activity pub users just spam to Nostr. They don’t interact here. They miss out on interaction and zaps.
It’s too early in the morning to be getting after this grown kid…
Doin’ it anyway 🤣

I don't LOVE Garbage Day, but the fiat job forces me to read it. (I find it biased, but what's not?)
Anyway, I thought I'd share this excerpt from it before I head out and let y'all argue amongst yourselves about it:
"Clubhouse, the clear inspiration for Airchat, “blew up” (debatable) during the pandemic thanks to a couple key factors: People with email jobs couldn’t go outside — or, at least, couldn’t post about being outside. The crypto market was on a bull run so everyone was rich with fake money. And perhaps most crucially and most often overlooked, a lot of people decided to reinvent their lives and a big chunk of those people decided they were tech founders now. These people LARP as CEOs on TikTok podcasts and whine on X all day about tech reviewers like Marques Brownlee not respecting the “builder’s mindset”. And Clubhouse, and now Airchat, smartly realized that if you dangle the promise of talking to Andreessen Horowitz employees in front of them these rubes will use their dinner party simulation apps long enough to harvest their voices to train their AI models. It’s so bleak!
I’ve seen people on Airchat already talking about flying out to San Fransisco to meet all their new Airchat friends. Do not do this! You are you in an MLM for people who know what Github is, but don’t know how to use it. Get help!
But the real reason I think Airchat is the ultimate sign of the end of Web 2.0 is that every new app now (that isn’t run by Bytedance) launches by dropping these same weirdos into a new enclosure. It’s the same 250 cool product managers and white nationalist crypto backpack zoomers jumping from one friendship casino to another. These are emo night cruises for people who remember Klout. Look, I don’t know what the future will bring, but we are clearly done with whatever this is. There is — there has to be — something new coming. For the love of god, people. We can’t keep doing this."'
And they haven't even found US yet...
So AirChat is a new social app. Kinda trendy.
"According to Bloomberg, by using the app, you grant it “a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, fully sublicensable license to use, reproduce, archive, edit, translate, create derivative works of, make available, distribute, sell, display, perform, transmit, broadcast and in any other way exploit those User Submissions.”"
no thank you. 🙂↔️
zee office is so cold I need zee sweater today
A friend of mine had this thing for always having to sit facing the door. Always. Literally got jumpy when he couldn't!
I miss that crazy old dude.
I can work and face the door now when I don’t have clients 💟

This is what she does! She shops for furniture!
Roomie hooked up new decor 🥰 most comfy chair ever and so much room for activities!
She read my mind. Kinda spooky! 🔮 
That would be fun. Short form video > long ass videos. And I hate when they don’t show video length (Reels). I need to know how long it’s gonna be before I watch it.
Agreed. I’m not anti-video. And I suspect far more consume it rather than create it.
If it were easier to upload videos here, it would be a game changer. The masses are lazy.
1. Are we going to trust those numbers from Elon simps?
2. Social platforms forced video on us for no reason, now we are stuck with it
3. X is pushing video because Yaccarino wants ad dollars…
