  Ghost itself is Open Source, but the Ghost Pro tier is actually about purchasing web hosting from Ghost, the company.

  So you’re not paying access to the open source license, it’s just that they’re restricting you to using their own hosting services instead of deciding which hosting service you want or even self-hosting in your own environment.

  Hopefully this changes with time.

    So you can’t self host ghost and use the activity plugin?
