Re:Why the Substack hype is much ado about very little by eandre on Tuesday July 27, 2021 @04:07AM (#27969856)
The writers you're most likely to want to read – the top-earning writers – have already demonstrated (through Substack) that they can easily acquire an audience of tens of thousands of subscribers by charging $5-10 dollars per month for themselves. Why would they participate in the bundle you're suggesting?

Advertising? Have some articles be part of the bundle as a "preview", and most articles behind an individual subscription?

This idea of building your own newspaper sounds kind of interesting actually: a mix of authors you've picked and an automatically curated content from other authors to help you find new authors.
