Author copies arrived of this bulky anthology of African ghost stories. Now I can say that my story was published in the same book as the legend, Amos Tutuola!
Geeky action du jour: importing #TheRealists blog posts into a #Notion database — so that I can potentially get interesting insights thanks to its new Q&A feature 👩🏻💻
(inspired by @crumbler and his brilliant use of Notion)
I believe Flipboard will prove to be a counterweight to Threads and a prime location for news & pundits (as #Meta does not really desire the latter two on their platforms).
I forgot to #MayTheFourth post the first #selfie i ever took. I'm wearing my brand new #StarWars t-shirt (that's Luke's lightsaber you see). Photo taken with a pinhole camera that came on a box of #CocoaPebbles.
This is also what my #ghost will look like when i come back to do some #haunting

Stupid IRON MAIDEN Plagiarism, Cheap Concert Tickets & Other Top Stories You Might've Missed This Week
Also stories about Slipknot. A lot of them.
With its long-form Articles feature (for Premium+ users), #Twitter is going after not just #Substack, but also blogs. This worries me because it might actually work. This level of centralization won't be healthy, because it actually prevents innovation and experimentation for building better reputation systems. We will be stuck with Twitter's algorithms for a long time.
A lot of action is happening in this space lately. #Meta launched #Threads , #Ghost is going to federate over #ActivityPub , #Mastodon is becoming a US non-profit (with a Twitter co-founder on the board).
An open publishing network - now THAT is exciting!
If you're still using Substack for your newsletter and want to migrate to Ghost, which has announced that it will join the fediverse this year, here's a step-by-step guide by @wes. It covers costs, what you'll need, setting up Mailgun and Cloudflare, how to move over your posts and subscribers and numerous other helpful details.
#Ghost to popularny system bloga z newsletterem, niektórzy twierdzą, że na odwrót, alternatywa dla WordPress, popularna za granicą, u nas mniej, bo nie wystarczy mu biedahosting z PHP (inb4: kocham PHP i tanie czy darmowe hostingi).
Chyba stwierdzili, że #Fediwersum się jednak przyjmie, bo nie tylko zaimplementują #ActivityPub w systemie, ale również piszą czytnik, który w końcu sensownie będzie pokazywał Artykuły (tak, Mastodon od lat NIE CHCE tego zrobić, trzyma się Notki jak Twitter i blokuje tym rozwój Fedi, tzn. jego popularność, Mastodona, w mojej ocenie).
