Please address the integration with private Substacks. Someone restacked a comment made on our private forum and it appeared in Notes, accessible to all.

Please fix this so private content cannot be made public on notes. Or give us the option to turn off the restack option completely.

Notes is great but without security private Substacks won’t be usable.

Agreed, allowing random reposting of comments is not a good feature. Comments are between author, commenter and other readers of the original post, not for posting publicly and out of context. Please change it.

That was a big fear for some people I was talking to earlier. That's great to hear!

FWIW, I wouldn’t mind a restack option for comments on a public Substack. Maybe a good solution would be to allow authors to enable or disable it based on the needs of their community.

But we always need the ability to keep invite-only Substacks private!

Seems strange! I don’t see a way this could have happened in the app - is it via desktop? Doesn’t feel great does it - comments are a conversation not a post or a note?

I was wondering about privacy. Haven’t checked my profile to see if I can stop any/all restacks of my comments if I want to.
