This sounds like Communism. The Substack party will redistribute the wealth among the writers 😀 Such a model already excists. Maybe you should switch to Medium.

I think you misunderstand me. The point is that Substack itself will know what articles you read, and your overall subscription can then be distributed between the writers of those pieces. Also, writers could opt out of that if they wanted to keep an exclusive subscription. But I have a feeling that distributing my subscription according to whatever I read could result in far greater income to writers.
I don't know Medium - does it offer this? The world is big, I don't claim to know everything, I only know what I'm prepared to pay for reading, and I've stopped paying for all Substacks, I would rather spend my money on a magazine like the Spectator, which already publishes many good Substack writers (eg Douglas Murray).
I just went back to Medium. I had forgotten that in 2016 I actually had an account! I had completely forgotten about Medium! I noticed one can pay a subscription of $50 a year, do writers share in that? Nothing on the website says so, leastways nothing to non-subscribers. Substack is more open about it.
