David B. HimselfSo, remember how a couple of days ago, I said I was going to try to turn a Wordpress site into a Fediverse solo instance? I tried. First, I took an old unused site, I stripped it of all unnecessary plugins and installed all the ActivityPub related plugins. I could log in with Elk and Phanpy with it, followed a few people, posted a few things... However, while I could see the Fediverse, the site remained invisible to the rest of the Fediverse. I have no idea why. Step two: I took another active site that already has the ActivityPub plugin. I activated the "author accounts" installed a few more plugins and... It's a bit of a mess. It's very slow, I can log in with Phanpy but not with Elk. I can follow the account from Mastodon or Firefish, but I don't see the posts. (when I post a regular blog post, it eventually shows up on my regular feeds but it can take time). And it's overall very slow. So in conclusion, I warmly advise you to set up the ActivityPub plugin to your Wordpress sites so that people can follow them from the Fediverse, but that's it. Using a Wordpress site as a "regular" Fediverse instance is a fun experiment, but it's not very practical. Maybe it is if you're way more knowledgeable than me about server things and can tweak yours, probably. Next, I'm really curious about Ghost on the Fediverse, but I already have a hosted Ghost newsletter, I'm not sure if it's wise to start yet another blog/newsletter on GhostPro. Maybe I should just wait for federation to become available for all Ghost installations. <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Fediverse" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fediverse</a> <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/ActivityPub" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ActivityPub</a> <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Wordpress" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wordpress</a> <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Ghost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ghost</a> <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/GhostPro" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GhostPro</a>

David B. HimselfAlright, I shut down some old Wordpress sites I don't really use anymore. This weekend, I'm trying to turn one into a Fediverse solo instance and see what happens. I'm also quite tempted to try a Fediverse-connected Ghost Pro installation. <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Fediverse" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fediverse</a> <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Wordpress" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wordpress</a> <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Ghost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ghost</a> <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/GhostPro" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GhostPro</a> <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/ActivityPub" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ActivityPub</a>

taste of tabooIch suche immer noch nach Alternativen zu Patreon ... und habe leider noch nichts gefunden.Das Problem ist zum einen, dass ich Fotos anbiete und genau das, auch wenn das in der EU unkompliziert ist, für vieles aus den USA eine Redflag bedeutet. Eigentlich bin ich von Ghost sehr angetan. Nur will Ghost einen Ghost Pro verkaufen, was bei dem Content, den ich mache, nicht erlaubt ist. Selbst hosten … ist mir auf jeden Fall lieber. Nur hat Ghost dann Stripe als Bezahlschranke eingebaut... . Stripe wiederum erlaubt nicht, was ich mache. Man könnte über Umwege auch PayPal nutzen, was Patreon bzw. ich derzeit auch nutzen... Aber dafür braucht man mindestens Zapier Starter für 29 U$/Monat.Dann will Ghost eigentlich noch Mailgun ... für die Newsletter 35 U$/Monat, da kommt man zwar theoretisch auch drum herum ... aber praktisch landet man da schnell. Eigentlich habe ich zwei recht vernünftige Mailserver laufen, die das auch könnten, technisch deutlich moderner als das was web.de und Co. bieten, auch besserer SPAM-Schutz etc. Aber Ghost und SMTP ... auch so ein Drama, E-Mail selbst macht außer Nerds wie mir kaum noch jemand.Und dann ist da noch die nicht vorhandene Medienverwaltung in Ghost ...Und so bleibt es bei Patreon + WordPress<a href="https://kinkytaboo.online/tags/WordPress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WordPress</a> <a href="https://kinkytaboo.online/tags/Ghost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ghost</a> <a href="https://kinkytaboo.online/tags/ghostpro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ghostpro</a> <a href="https://kinkytaboo.online/tags/CMS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CMS</a> <a href="https://kinkytaboo.online/tags/PayPal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PayPal</a> <a href="https://kinkytaboo.online/tags/Stripe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Stripe</a> <a href="https://kinkytaboo.online/tags/Patreon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Patreon</a> <a href="https://kinkytaboo.online/tags/Fotografie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fotografie</a> <a href="https://kinkytaboo.online/tags/Fotos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fotos</a> <a href="https://kinkytaboo.online/tags/bezahlschranke" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bezahlschranke</a> <a href="https://kinkytaboo.online/tags/newsletter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#newsletter</a> <a href="https://kinkytaboo.online/tags/paypal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#paypal</a>

Matthew ReinboldWell, this <a href="https://opinuendo.com/tags/Substack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Substack</a> to <a href="https://opinuendo.com/tags/GhostPro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GhostPro</a> migration is going about as well as I expected it to - which is to say, mixed. On one hand, some things are super slick (updating referential links *inside* the posts to their new homes? NICE). On the other hand, there's still going to be a ton of manual work based on how images are handled. And I guess its good I've been suspended until I attest where I imported my list from but - COME ON - I followed the admin UI's import wizard - they have this info. <a href="https://opinuendo.com/tags/ghost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ghost</a>
