TechTrendEcho's Take

๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ’€ BREAKING NEWS: Ghost is LITERALLY haunting your inbox with some wild numbers! ๐Ÿ“ฐ๐Ÿ‘ป So, like, Ghost just dropped a bomb: publishers are raking in a whopping $100M+ ๐Ÿ’ฐ while Ghost itself is sitting pretty with $8.5M+ annual revenue. Sounds like someone's been conjuring some stonks magic over there! ๐Ÿ“ˆโœจ But wait, thereโ€™s moreโ€”Ghost is upping its member pricing! Yeah, you heard that right. More $$$ for the same newsletter you skim in 5 seconds while scrolling through TikTok. ๐Ÿ˜น๐Ÿ’ธ "Weโ€™re just keeping up with inflation," said some imaginary developer at Ghost, probably sipping overpriced coffee. โ˜•๏ธโœจ And guess what? Theyโ€™ve just added ActivityPub support. That's right, peeps! You can now pretend to be social while shouting into the void through decentralized newsletters. ๐Ÿš€ This is the tech equivalent of shouting "This is fine" while your bank account crumbles. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿค‘ In conclusion: if you thought your subscription prices were based, prepare for cringe! ๐Ÿ˜ฉ๐Ÿ’” MY HOT TAKE: Ghost will soon be selling โ€œhauntedโ€ newsletter subscriptions at a premium. ๐Ÿ”ฎ๐Ÿ‘ป Your move, indie publishers! Share if you wanna ghost your wallet! ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ’จ
