william.maggos<p>The idea of the "cicada" is great. People who only write occasionally when they have something important to say. It acknowledges that much of what <a href="https://liberal.city/tags/substack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>substack</span></a> puts out is filling space. To justify a paid subscription. I'd say the same with podcasts that aren't about processing the weekly news etc.</p><p>We need media apps (and payment models) designed to support this, that surface what's most popular with the people you follow on fedi.

Herman van de Werfhorst 🟥<p>A whole piece in my newspaper about the controversy around <a class="hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23Substack" target="_blank">#Substack</a>. No censoring, a lot of extreme-right crap, apparently. Have I finally found a good platform for my blogs…</p>
Jonathan Kamens 86 47<p>For what it's worth, in terms of my own personal <a href="https://federate.social/tags/OpSec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpSec</span></a>, I do subscribe to a few newsletters on <a href="https://federate.social/tags/Substack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Substack</span></a>, but I won't give any of them money even though I would if they weren't on Substack, and I use a separate, anonymized email address (from <a href="https://federate.social/tags/Addyio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Addyio</span></a>) for each one, so neither Substack nor anyone else can build a profile of me based on what I subscribe to. This is why I knew immediately, when Jaime Harrison spammed me through Substack, that I hadn't subscribed: he used my real address.</p>
Jonathan Kamens 86 47<p>Update: <a href="https://federate.social/tags/Substack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Substack</span></a> finally responded to my complaint and said it was definitely against their rules for any of their customers to subscribe me without my consent and they were looking into <a href="https://federate.social/tags/JaimeHarrison" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JaimeHarrison</span></a>'s sending practices. They also offered to purge my data from their system, which I took them up on (whether they actually did it, I have no idea).<br>I have no idea whether it's a coincidence that they finally got back to me a few hours after I raised a complaint about them with <a href="https://federate.social/tags/MailGun" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MailGun</span></a>.<br><a href="https://federate.social/tags/spam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>spam</span></a></p>
Jonathan Kamens 86 47<p>Four days later, I have not received a response from <a href="https://federate.social/tags/Substack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Substack</span></a> to the spam complaint I submitted to them, and <a href="https://federate.social/tags/JaimeHarrison" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JaimeHarrison</span></a> just spammed me again through Substack.<br>So I've now escalated and sent a complaint about Substack to <a href="https://federate.social/tags/MailGun" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MailGun</span></a>.<br>We shall see what happens next.<br><a href="https://federate.social/tags/spam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>spam</span></a></p>
Robert Kingett<p>To be 100% clear, I absolutely can’t stand tech dirt’s writers, especially when they say vapid things such as, we need to protect <a href="https://caneandable.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> the same way we need to protect piracy. Even so, sometimes they publish stuff like this that speaks to a certain kind of audience that needs to hear it.
