Did you build the activity pub stuff yourself or are you using something under the hood?

I built it directly into my site in like 2018. Finally paid off haha

Let's see if I get banned for linking to my own website, which you can also follow from Mastodon.

wow I didn't expect the policy to get written to actually prohibit linking to other platforms like Mastodon... good thing my website is not running Mastodon and is my own first-party platform, not third-party.

This is the last straw. I give up. You can find a link to my new Mastodon profile on my site.

My initial thoughts on the @gumroad price increase:

The 10% flat fee "no longer includes credit card processing fees", which means it's more like a 12.9% fee to sell on the platform.

We do ~$100K/mo in sales, so this would make our fees go up to roughly $13,000/mo.

AI isn't going to replace workers... AI can only mimic what it sees and suggest basic ideas that have to be ignored or corrected. AI will replace CEOs.

We don't charge bandwidth fees, but we wouldn't be able to support files that large. Could you host them on S3?

hm, I suppose so, but I'd want to use the S3 signed request thing to avoid persistent links to the files being available. Looks like Shopify does that built in with their digital downloads app.

The alternative federated protocols seem too complicated. I see a lot about the need for progressive enhancement on the web, but when it comes to communication systems people seem to abandon that requirement. Part of my nostalgia for RSS comes from how easy it was to get started.

Yes! This is exactly why we've been taking this more incremental approach with #IndieWeb building blocks, like adding Microformats to turn a web page into a parseable feed, then Webmention to enable conversations, etc.

I'm considering moving my Gumroad listings to ConvertKit or Shopify, it's not clear whether there are bandwidth fees for the digital downloads.

If you can’t easily come up with an example, be open to the possibility that what you are thinking of… is not a thing.

This feels like a subtweet 🙃
