Does Substack Want to Be a Platform? + Fiction & Investment Newsletters
Substack recently launched its iOS app and it gives us some insight into the company's plans. Newsletters have been an interesting new media trend because they gave control back to the creators and didn't rely on all-powerful platforms for distribution.
If Substack's app is a huge success it could remove that independence from creators. Are you concerned by this or is there less to fear since switching to another ESP is so easy?
And this week's newsletters cover investment, an interactive fiction newsletter, burnout, real estate, and more.
