Jesus Christ. That was the shortest amount of time I’ve ever been part of a social media site. It was overwhelming & everything was locked behind a subscription to separate accounts. So I couldn’t take part in many chats. I want to be an informed citizen but that place seemed like the devil himself. Additionally I got like 20 emails from everyone I followed. It was constantly pushing notifications about things I couldn’t participate in because I wasn’t a paying member. I’ll stick to mastodon.

TLDR. I tried to get the news & such off Substack & then deleted Substack.

I looked into it, but I don't want to get $2 / $5 for every blogger I want to read about.

Lots of them have free tiers.

I follow a few writers for free and read their articles in my email.
