No platform is ever truly free.
That applies whether we’re talking about TikTok, Google, YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, WhatsApp, Facebook - or Substack. And if you think to yourself, this time, it'll be different, good luck to you.
But sooner or later, you're going to get fucked.

Why I Won't Write on Substack
There is something perverse about every voice of record, every journalist with a profile, every writer with an audience abandoning ship for Substack. It's been a growing trend for the past few years, and it's getting worse. Substack has done an excellent job convincing intelligent people from legacy media backgrounds

Felt powerless-needed to hear this: "The real value of the first step isn't in its specific direction. It's in breaking the paralysis of possibility." "Movement creates information. Standing still creates nothing." "There's value in a shitty First Step."—JA Westenberg www.youtube.com/watch?v=TB8U...

Okay, to help everyone make their BlueSky what they want it to be, here's a thread about feeds. What they are, how to find them, how to add them, how to pin them, what feeds to follow if you're a #writer, and how you can make your own

We are officially open for submissions until October 31st! Send us your long-form fiction, poetry, non-fiction, and your work that transcends the genres!
