I subscribed last december after knowing about it in last year's version of this thread.
It is great and gives a very good summary of the HN week, I love it!

freshly subscribed - had a peek in the archives, noticed a link to curpress.com that appears to be offline.

Are you making money just from sponsors or something else too?

Yeah, just sponsors. I hope to use it as an outlet for other projects in the near future.

I'm reading this because of the newsletter! HN is a time sink so the newsletter lifts only items worthy of attention to my email. Been a sub for many years. Thank you!

Thanks so much for this project. I have a busy work week and life outside of work, so to be able to get a digest of all the past weeks happenings on a Friday is perfect. It's part of my normal wind down for the weekend routine :).

Thank you for running this! I've been reading it every week for many years since I subscribed :)
If I may ask, what were some of the strategies that drove most of your subscriber growth?
