A *lot* of indies (myself included!) who are wide are part of Kobo Plus because they don't ask for exclusivity like KU. Really encourage people to try it out.
Kobo is doing a 30 day free trial promotion for their Kindle Unlimited competitor service Kobo Plus for new subscribers (not sure if this is US only), if you like queer indie books, small press SFF, and backlist SFF from large publishers there's a lot to choose from on this service that's not on KU!

I’m trying to get better about communicating about how my health is negatively impacting me instead of trying to retreat into a dark cave of solitude like a wounded animal, but lord help me this newest round of setbacks is really testing that resolve!
