Dot Social: This Publishing Platform Sees the Future, with Ghost’s John O’Nolan
Love this summary!
"John O’Nolan, the founder and CEO of Ghost, calls himself “the inverse Peter Thiel.” That’s because he wants to build a tech company that bucks the usual narratives, with as few monopolies as possible. His open-source publishing platform is structured as a nonprofit and is integrating with the ActivityPub protocol, giving creators digital sovereignty. No longer do writers have to perform for an algorithm to succeed or get stuck inside closed systems that monetize off their backs."
Getting really excited about what activity pub can do and where this all can go. Another great interview npub1ye2edczjv88t4tuqmpn2xywnn9jyhjz7u0kladqmmap2r76nkqtsyply82 (npub1ye2…ly82)
"How should the web work going forward" 👀
