@uvaise_ @paraschopra @SubstackInc @Shopify An ideological niche that is powered by substack and m***ive open collaboration is something like this https://t.co/L0ga87OO56 I think @AnandWrites is proving that you can (and should) focus on niches first (early adopters) and develop your message around them.

.@hamishmckenzie I have a feeling this wasn't in your vision? (Re: the hate blog, grahamlinehan . substack . com) Though you might wanna know? 🤷‍♀️ Twitter banned him ages ago for this type of targeted har***ment, doxing and hate. (But now his home is on SubStack?!)

Rob Hardy @ungatedcreative

Reported 2020-10-26 20:41:26

However, peering down the road, it’s not hard to imagine Substack tightening the screws on creators because they need to justify their valuation. Such is the nature of playing the VC game. /24

Lisa Marie™ @L_isaMarie

Reported 2020-10-26 20:10:49

Their content policy is clear, this kind of behavior is not to be tolerated. Myself and multiple others have reported this issue to @SubstackInc but they have not replied (its been almost a month now). Is there a reason @SubstackInc doesn't enforce this? https://t.co/6IaGBkFZCH

Rob Hardy @ungatedcreative

Reported 2020-10-26 18:20:56

None of this would be an issue if Substack had a Zapier integration or something. That way, you could use a proper email tool to build relationships with your fans. But nope. Substack’s completely closed off as a platform. /19

Rob Hardy @ungatedcreative

Reported 2020-10-26 18:20:56

Truthfully, this isn’t a huge problem yet, as Substack's still new for most consumers. However, as more creators flock to the platform, it won't be long until you're seen as “yet another dude on Substack.” Substack writers will be a commodity before they know it./13

@loudmouthjulia my worry with the substack model is it promotes putting a lot more journalism behind a paywall. obviously there’s a structural problem in media funding (not blaming the journalists), but it shows the need for a better funding model that keeps good journalism in the public sphere.

Not a new problem. The creator economy has faced this for....well, forever. And I'm so freakin psyched that so many amazing journalists are going to Substack cause I love the format. But I wonder if there's a reason we're seeing a lot of tech journos go a paid route vs others?

Seriously though, this is fascinating. The entire narrative of Substack is built upon the shift away from an ad biz models.
