Substack has been utterly transformative. It's possible to have conversations here that simply cannot take place elsewhere. A business model that makes content, rather than ad revenue, the source of revenue, means that what we write is the product ... rather than who we are.

"what we write is the product, rather than who we are"--THIS IS IT. This cuts to the core of social media. That's why we get influencers and superficiality and this empty materialism--because that's what Social Media rewards these days.
Substack doesn't reward anyone--but enables *substance* and *quality* to be rewarded by actual people with money. It's not about driving eyeballs, it's about rewarding *work*.

Keep up the good work.
