"Substack and similar services expanded because layoffs and consolidation created a vacuum. What appeared to be freedom often isolated workers with the same risks and bills that newsrooms once shared."
In this piece from our latest issue, @therewasnosound.bsky.social unpacks how the ‘independence’ platforms like Substack offer is a individualized survival strategy and business model that ultimately isolates workers and undermines worker power.
