Substack is just another platform where the nazis run wild thanks to capitalism or misguided ideas of what free speech is supposed to mean.

Adding to the Nazi comment - substack is basically a long form blog format, very similar (AFAICT) to Medium.

How is this a Nazi comment?

I have been working on a personal Ghost blog and this is amazing news for me!! Ghost is a joy to use. I am curious about the performance requirements, how it will work with self hosted, I have mine on a cheap VPS.

Am I misunderstanding, or is ActivityPub just reinventing RSS?

Activity Pub is much more flexible, the tradeoff being that it’s more complex. ActivityPub is basically a flexible CRUD API specifically designed for social networking, with support for federation.
You could fulfill the purpose of RSS with ActivityPub. But, it doesn’t supercede RSS/atom, because the simplicity is valuable for the cases those protocols handle.

Had the same thought a few days ago when I discovered Podcast worked with RSS and that you could get Podcast and News technically in one place
