I'm glad I didn't have an advertiser today. I would have had to re-run their ad. Ghost screwed up my newsletter deliverability with their domain verification bug.
Still no communication from them. No idea when it will be fixed. Looking into alternatives like Magic Pages bc this is my full time job

What if your business actually isn't remote? Just because you work from home doesn't mean you can work from anywhere.
That's what Giulia Raffaello found out when she tried to take her business out of Europe.

im glad to hear that thank you :D
I still can't re-activate mine
Still no email from @ghost.org support and my newsletter went out without it’s sending domain so this is an actual bug. I saw that they sent emails to others saying everything was fine but it’s not. This is a deliverability issue now
Very frustrating to have no communication and no fix.
I still havent heard a peep and my sending domain isnt active
Tomorrow's story is from Italian creator and entrepreneur Giulia Raffaello who thought she could work from anywhere—and then discovered her business was more place-based than she realized.

I still haven't heard anything from @ghost.org. Nothing on the status page, no emails either in response to my support ticket 12 hours ago or otherwise. My domain still says it's reactivating.
I heard from someone that they got an email it's an error but it's not fixed
New question! Who is buying right now?
This was asked by a Legend in a Slack group we're in and I thought it was a really good way to reframe slow seasons. What kinds of clients or customers are in buy mode? Who is approaching you for projects?

It would be great if @ghost.org could tell us what's up with email sending as it seems they're having a system wide problem based on 5 of us getting these notices today
Status page shows nothing is wrong but something clearly is: ghoststatus.org
Me too. I have a send tomorrow🤞🏻
Ty i hope they fix it!
You *think* your business is remote and you can run it from anywhere. But what if you're wrong?
Tomorrow, Giulia Raffaello tells the story of how she learned her travel content business had more location dependence than she realized.

Did anyone else using Ghost get an email like this today? All the sudden Ghost can't detect the records in my DNS even though they're all correct. It has to reactivate my sending domain which is annoying because it was all working fine
Seems like yet another bug
I was very excited I can finally buy a movie ticket online with my new local bank account but then I got to the movie theater and they don’t have electricity 🤣

Its really good!
You might run your business from home but that doesn't mean your business can be run from anywhere.
This Sunday, Giulia Raffaello tells us the warning signs that your business might be more locally dependent than you think.

Cool new street art in Bogotá, Calle 72 featuring Michael J. Fox. He lives!
In a few weeks, we will be publishing @andreagrimes.com's piece on male loneliness and predatory betting markets, connecting the dots on a social phenomenon that depends on both patriarchy and uncontrolled capitalism. You don't want to miss that one.
I kind of need these to be done locally because I need time to write them all out and address them. It takes me days to do that. I’m having the stickers made in the US only bc my sticker shop here won’t do die cut backings (the stickers are die cut but they don’t look it. Hard to explain)
Ok we’re pivoting. I went to the stationary store and several print shops. The stationary store can do it but it’s extraordinarily expensive ($300 USD) I’m used to paying max of $50 for the whole set of cards.
I’m going to buy blank cards locally and have a rubber stamp made to customize them
Im pretty stunned tbh

Whew, what a sale! We gained 32 new paid subscribers (!!) yesterday, and we're so grateful to each and every one of them for their support. And thanks to everyone who signal boosted, too 🐺🤝🙂
I feel like I’ve been punched in the gut with how hard we are working to source, research, write and edit stories and how hard I scour for guest contributors with fresh takes. It truly sucks to hear it’s not landing with this reader
One of my readers just told me some of our stories feel written by AI. None of our stories are written by AI. I have every writer sign an agreement that they won’t use it in writing and I would never feed a writer’s work into AI for editing.
This is the worst feedback I’ve ever gotten
