The blogging platform #Ghost is working on adding #ActivityPub integration. That means, among other things, being able to follow Ghost-powered blogs and comment on articles right from your Mastodon account. The website they made to explain their plans is really nice! This is what momentum looks like.

We've updated the rules of our flagship server mastodon.social today. Most are the same with some clarifications, but one rule is new: Content created by others must be attributed, and use of AI must be disclosed. Profiles that only post AI-generated content will not be tolerated.
Excellent video by @npub169hk...ufmy about the #SocialWeb. You can basically send this to anyone who wants to learn what makes Mastodon unique compared to other social media platforms and what it is that we're doing here ๐
If #Apple continues on this path Iโm going to have to switch back to Android. The idea that they deserve a fee from developers for people simply running programs on their operating system is unhinged. The App Store fee is justified because itโs a distribution channel. But whatever this is, is nonsense.
I'm 31 years old now :catjam:
My wife is looking forward to deleting her Instagram account once she can connect with the same folks from her Mastodon account. Being able to remain in touch with over 100M people who still use Meta products out of the comfort of an ad-free, privacy-friendly platform like Mastodon is a game changer.
#Threads is testing federation for a few selected profiles. I'm now following @npub1vx0d...ku9p! It's one-way for now, but it's exciting. It's a step towards the interoperable social web that we've been advocating for ๐
Today's the last day to get #Mastodon merch with a 20% discount. There's about 70 winter mugs left and I don't know when we will print more.
She is comfortable enough to routinely steal my chair now.

Now would be a good time for all European politicians and journalists to setup accounts on Mastodon.

We're going to make a #Mastodon plushie and it's going to be very cute! I'll share more details once the prototype is doneโthe concept art is very promising and our partners at FRESH have a good track record of making plushies ๐
You can now search for a bunch more stuff on mastodon.social! If you're on web, the popout on the search bar will tell you. Designing this stuff to work properly was pretty fun!
