So happy to be on substack. I find myself writing increasingly interesting posts because I know they are being read and not lost in some stupid algorithm. Twitter's petty little antics will not keep us there, they'll just drive us all here instead.

I’m slowly rebuilding that art myself! Of noticing things and writing about them, haha.
I’ve been on Substack for around 9 months now but before I had gotten in the groove of writing to appease an algorithm and to try to stop people from scrolling short form long enough to click, so I’m retraining myself to write what I desire and it’s been fun to get back to my roots!
Well, I guess I’m currently working through a new hurdle of just finding myself period (lost my mom in December) so I can start writing more engaging articles.
But I’m so happy my community allowed me to self-indulge in writing reflections each week as I work up to writing more intentionally with personal essays and poetry this week and hopefully beyond!
Substack is great; I feel so welcomed for who I want to allow myself to be.
Being forced to play algorithm chicken is so wrong! I simply refuse, and substack shows us that's simply not what audiences want, either. Glad you found your groove again but I'm so sorry for your loss.
Yes VERY true! I’m so tired of manipulation and clearly so many others are too like you said. And I’m slowly getting there! Day by day things seem to slowly make some sense again. And thank you for your condolences!

It is inspiring to build an audience and know they’ll appreciate your work.
Yes!
Yes! It actually feels worth putting in extra work because people will read what you worked so hard on.
Absolutely!
