Ask HN: Is Substack the New Medium?

This is why I read HN: someone starts a discussion about a high-profile tech company, and gets a thoughtful reply from none other than the CEO. Thanks for taking the time.

Ironically, this is also why you use HN and not Medium. The Medium CEO himself has just demonstrated that the discussion happens somewhere else than on Medium.

Because, among other things, Medium has gone out of its way to make sure conversations never happen. Their comment system is unusable.

I like that too. I’ve been a daily reader here since 2007 and the sharing of 1st hand info is what makes it valuable.
