I’ve never heard of that platform, whereas I have heard of Substack. If I’d already built a following, they already have their alerts set up for my substack. If I’m hoping people will pay me, many have already put their payment information into substack, which is a significant barrier many people face in deciding to pay for something online. At a certain point, ideological purity runs into pragmatic problems.
