Yes. That's right. There are some subtle differences between Medium and Substack mostly owing to the fact that Medium was originally designed as a blogging site and Substack was originally designed as an email newsletter platform (with a place to park blog posts as well). So each is a bit catered a bit more catered to their original goal, although they've certainly become more similar over time.

Ghost seems to be squarely in the middle: both a blog site builder/newsletter platform from the outset. Honestly, Ghost looks to maybe be doing the site builder piece even better (like more ability to remove Ghost branding relative to Medium/Substack, which makes sense since it's open source).

I think what may be implied by OPs comment:

The other members of the club will harass you to come to events. Your dues are your indirect way of paying for your social event harassment (ha!).

As a friend of a club member, I often don't want to go but am cajoled, and then I'm glad I went. It's awesome. Highly recommend.

What does a routing analyst do? 😶‍🌫️

Yea. Just the way this question is phrased is so flawed on prejudiced assumptions.

Really glad you brought the opposite perspective to the table here 🙏 thank you!

 

The description for the community talks about the Blue Sky app and the AT protocol but all the posts in this community are democratic/liberal support posts. Sorry I'm #outoftheloop. I'm trying to find a Lemmy/ActivityPub community for updates on BueSky and the AT protocol.

Some things I'm proud of:

  • The citizens that volunteer their time to defend the potential of others in their communities. E.g. youth development, homeless assistance.
  • The common principles the nation is built on (life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness) and bind us together. Today, it seems the many ways those principles are interpreted has splintered society. However, in my experience, most Americans feel strongly about those principles, and they can be used as a basis for relationships across many unlikely social groups.

I think it's easiest to be proud of your country and fellow citizens when you start interacting meaningful with your neighbors with an open mindset, regardless of their world view.

To add to this:

It's also owned and operator by a non-profit in the United States (unlike Telegram and Whatsapp which are operated from the UAE and a for-profit company respectively).
