It's great testimony and I see how this can work. However, substack does not cater for Africa to earn a living it is designed for America, Asia and Europe. I say this because last week I had a reader who wanted to pledge. I had not turned on my publication for substack for payments. When I did try to turn it on, stripe was the only way to get paid and my country South Africa was not included. Stripe Atlas requires an American Address and security number which I do not have. So that is a problem it means I can never earn money for my writing. So this platform needs to be more inclusive and find other ways to include us. D.E.I is paramount for all of us in this world. So substack please find a way for African writers to earn a living too. This is a good platform and I believe it can always be great.
Hi, I'm in Australia and did not need an American address but I do not know the African situation.
Anyway, we have big problems here because if they pass the digital censorship bill Substack will disappear from Australia anyway. Substack doesn't seem to care or want to interact about the issue (this post will likely be taken down and I will be banned again).
