“I'd recommend subscribing to Conter's Substack to listen to this. Not just for this pod, but for all the content Conter is producing 3 times every week: it's very high quality, taking on the big issues the socialist movement faces with honesty & clarity.”
“Getting a newsletter from someone on @Substack and then being told to continue reading a post in the substack app is the stupidest thing in the world”
“Just out of interest, if I were to set up a Patreon or a Substack page to display my Crystal Palace coverage, would you be willing to subscribe? #CPFC”
“I'll complete 100th days on substack next week and already crossed 500 subscribers and each post gets over 100 likes.. so just engage with other substackers.. that's it”
“However I really want to write about my passions / opinion freely, how can you make a substack that is yours but not tied to you, but also I want to promote it.”
“I realised that when I publish an article on Substack, the email version of the article gets send to the subscribers. But the received email doesn't show my profile picture that I have on the Substack. I looked around the settings to see if there is a way to change or upload the image I want.”
“I think they realized that Substack is the best way to actually reach people who will read articles. So if you have enough juice, they’re probably supportive of it since there will simply be a larger audience.”
“Substack allows you to "transfer ownership" to another email, but the help bot is not helpful when I ask what happens to the Stripe account connected (and all the paid subscriptions). Anyone have any knowledge about this?”
“The simplicity and honesty in your post has allowed me to not make starting my own substack less behemoth and more approachable idea in my head. Thank you!”
“This is pure speculation but my assumption is they revamped their website in hopes it would help engagement for their non-Spotify content and that didn’t work, so they’re trying Substack because it has a wayyyy bigger user base than the Ringer’s website ever could. Casting the widest net they can to filter people into the Ringer’s content ecosystem”
“This is me speculating, but Substack has recommendation workflows and a user base that likes newsletters. Just another way to diversify The Ringer’s offerings.”
“Nobody outside Substack actually knows the exact tiered audience math, so chasing that timeline is a waste of time. What actualy moves things is checking what's already restacking hard in your niche this week, noting the hook and format, then writing your own take on it instead of echoing it.”
“I started a weekly substack, Reclaim Your Inner Life. It uses philosophy and history to explore how diagnoses have colonized our inner lives, and shares strategies for finding our way out.”
“I looked at Substack and came to the same conclusion you did. I ended up going with a Wordpress/Newspack site instead. I started it June 10th and will have 300 newsletter subscribers and $340 a month in subscription revenue over the last 30 days.”
“Today marks one year since I joined Substack. I’m at almost 9k subscribers now. I write about films, and around 90% of my subscribers came through Notes, mostly from movie recommendations.”
“Is Substack a good place to sell a digital course, or is it better used to build an audience and drive people to a course hosted somewhere else? Has anyone successfully sold PDFs, mini-courses or full courses directly through Substack?”
“substack is the better half of your idea, but for a different reason. writing 10 breakdowns of campaigns you've studied, what worked, what you'd change, shows thinking. thinking is what junior hires get judged on, since nobody expects you to have results yet.”
“it feels less cluttered because there aren't as many ads, but eventually there will be. i have a bunch of newsletters i enjoy reading, and every morning i'll read one from my "read" tab.”
“Sooo I wanted to start a substack writing about things that interested me in the world to try and create an activity that actually has something to do with what I want to do in the future.”
“I'm not sure I've ever used any of them, and when I've looked at them it's been some YouTuber trying to make money. That, and their Substack.I know everyone's down on MCP, but custom-built client side MCP tools are what I find useful instead.”
“Who else is just writing on Substack for the vibes? I have 3 subscribers and don’t share my articles anywhere but I love writing into the abyss and having my words somewhere (for as long as the internet lasts at least).”
