  1. 2 years later, the Post.news domain is dead as the proverbial dodo, and FlipBoard and NewsCast are doing essentially the same thing successful in the fediverse. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't feeling just a little smug : P

  10. Post.news closes down tomorrow. What can we learn from it?

    Monetizing posts, with profits going to the author, is difficult but possible without relying on crypto. Kudos for the attempt!

    Focusing on one aspect - news - diminishes your user base to a specific interest group.

    And, being a closed instance without an API or federation to other platforms made survival difficult.

  15. #postnews is again telling me they are shutting down. I want to be nice but they could have built sustainable services within the #ActivityPub ecosystem. It would have helped everyone thrive. They knew that. They weren't as ignorant of the options as most of their users. They could have helped improve any problems or deficiencies they identified in what was already available. instead they wanted to be the hero and get rich. I guess I'm sorry they fell for the Hollywood version of capitalism.

  18. @starrwulfe @evan Yep. #PostNews had potential, & I believe that if they would have allowed custom domains for a fee & activated #ActivityPub, they would have been as successful as #MicroBlog.

    Throw in #Tumblr importing & it would have thrived.

  29. #PostNews ci saluta. Pare che avessero in programma anche di implementare #ActivityPub ed entrare nel #Fediverso.

    Cosa ci insegna questa cosa: che la diversificazione va benissimo ma occorre anche avere la forza e la capacità di aggregarsi sui progetti che hanno più chance di fare la differenza, evitando di estinguersi prematuramente. 😁 😉
