Substack has some really shitty data hygiene & recently open-cc’d a huge number of subscribers on some administrative emails. They also have continued to auto-renew subscribers to terminated newsletters. I had to contest credit card charge from them. My writer friend who fled Substack is now on Revue & likes it a lot better.
I understand rage quitting WordPress, but in favor of Substack? I understand your trade unionist tendencies and published author aspirations might make you more sympathetic to FYPM ethos and less to DIY hacker ethos, but damn do I miss the golden era of blogging and Substack is a golden example of why, even more than the despicable Medium.
