If you're going to leave Substack, don't just get on another platform where you don't control your content. Learn how to set up a static site with RSS, on your own domain that you can easily move to another host.

Super early days, but we've been building a substack alternative on top of atproto, you can check out some publications people have made at leaflet.pub/discover.

I think atproto offers a pretty compelling way to get the benefits of substack, like discovery, native social features like comments, quotes etc, integration into a microblogging network; without locking into a closed network.

The extensibility story is also really good, opening interesting opportunities for individual publishers to augment their experiences.

Moderation, which is the main point of this article, is a bit of an open question, but diffusing responsibility the way bluesky does is a more promising direction imo than hoping a single trust and safety department can make everyone happy.

So, people should stop using substack because they might disagree with the writing of some other people using substack?
