@FediTips “First things first, I needed a server for Ghost.” Welp,

@federatedreader don't threaten me with a good time

#substack just emailed me maha propaganda. I discontinued paying them when they defended their right to profit from Nazi ideas and I've never allowed marketing emails from them so this is both annoying and unsurprising, given that they are American NazisI blocked the sender. What else can i do but tell people not to patronize the Nazi newsletter distributor?

RE: https://journa.host/@MAD_democracy/116174870551802911Time to leave #Substack folks.Way past time, but maybe this will be the final straw for you.

What is it about #Substack that seems to make it irreplaceable, even for some of the most progressive voices ?

check out my substack post! #iran #israel #breakingpoints #substack #middleeast #war https://thesavagedossier.substack.com/p/the-long-fuse

@lor Ghost is an amazing replacement. Even got activity pub integration

So many people still on #substack Leave!https://leavesubstack.com/

@notsle @writefreely This popped up full screen in my Masto feed and almost gave me a heart attack. It took me a minute to figure out what it was for.

I'm not getting war news or trans news or any other news from substack because i still think it's really important to reject Nazis, especially when they try to give you information, and even more specifically when they are starting wars #substack #usPol

@HarmonthSeeker Usually they see an exerpt that they can click through to see the whole thing.Although I think some instances it works like they restrict what size their users post yet their users can still see other instances long posts as one big post in their feeds.And also if you want to have more control over what people see in the exerpt you can use the "abstract" function to write a little summary instead of it just showing the first so many words of what you wrote and then when the person clicks through they see the whole thing.hope this helps! it is also sometimes possible to import all the posts from your previous mastodon habdle but not always (depends on how well the admin configured the instance), but ive had success importing followers.Only caveat is Friendica has more features so it may take a moment to get used to its UI being different. But people are usually friendly about helping answer questions. Happy to follow back and help if you end up putting your toe in the water there.

@FediTips But I want to host my own ghost install. I just want to do it without learning a foreign language.
