        "text": "Whoosh, there went July and August. And almost September. I did remember the 21st night of September, though.\n\nIt\u2019s been a weird summer, lots of ups and downs. A good chunk of my blahs are from the weight of still taking Covid precautions while watching the majority of people pretend things are normal. I\u2019ve been trying to combat that by intentionally connecting with more Covid Conscious (CC) communities online. I connected with a couple nearby that started up a CC Discord server for games of all types. They\u2019ve had a couple in-person events in their garage. Masks were required, air purifiers were running, and there was good airflow with the garage door open. It\u2019s been great to meet more people in a safe way like that. Yesterday, we had our first virtual board game night using Board Game Arena. It was a success! There\u2019s also some general CC servers for San Diego and broader SoCal. They\u2019ve been a great place to ask questions, learn, commiserate, and just have fun.\n\nI\u2019ve been following the Fan Favorite SD Instagram (formerly CovidSafeSocal) for a while now. It\u2019s a mutual aid group that distributes high quality masks and Covid tests to anyone that needs them. They also loan out air purifiers (get it, Fan Favorite) to help make events safer. Every layer of protection helps and every broken chain of transmission has a tangible impact! Earlier this year they set up a Discord to coordinate volunteers. I was excited to get involved in any way I could, but especially with improving the web presence so we\u2019re not reliant solely on Instagram. It\u2019s still very basic, but we have fanfavoritesd.com now and we\u2019re taking control of our links by using our own links in bio instead of Linktree. I look forward to adding more to the site like a local event calendar, links to resources, and of course a blog.\n\nWhen the people who started up Fan Favorite were starting to get burnt out from juggling everything, I offered to help out with the mask pickups and mailings. I\u2019m privileged to work from home and have a pretty flexible schedule, so it made sense to jump in. Seeing the requests for masks come in reminds me that I\u2019m definitely not alone in this and it helps me maintain hope during times of despair. It\u2019s really important to me to fight for hope. I am also enjoying the logistics of keeping track of our stock of masks \ud83e\udd13 and thinking about open source software that might make it easier for groups to do this type of work without relying on big corporate silos. More to come on that sometime.\n\nI can\u2019t forget to mention that I went to the final XOXO Festival in Portland. I loved seeing some IndieWeb friends that I hadn\u2019t seen since the before times; sharing the XOXO experience with Joe and Kelly; and the care the organizers put into their health and safety policy. I might write more about XOXO soon, but for now let\u2019s click publish!",

And so far the answer is yes, because ActivityPub is (quite significantly) more expensive to support than email. But, this is all very early days, and hopefully we\u2019ll figure out ways to get some of the costs and complexity down.</p>\n</blockquote>\n<p>If I\u2019m reading this correctly and the pricing holds, that effectively means you will pay more for hosting if you have lots of followers on the fediverse. This would be a first; I\u2019ve never heard of a social network charging for followers before.</p>\n<p>So if you\u2019re using the $11/month Ghost hosting that allows 500 members, you could have (for example) 100 email subscribers and 400 followers in the fediverse. As soon as you had more subscribers or followers, you would need to bump up to the $19/month plan. If you got up to 10k and more followers, you would be paying hundreds of dollars a month.</p>\n<p>Of course this is all beta and as Ghost further optimizes it, the pricing could change.
