I’m a good listener. I can say things like “provision another instance,” and have no idea what I’m talking about.

John Naughton gets it:

although I use both Medium and Substack, everything I write therein is also published verbatim on my ‘live’ blog, which is completely under my control, and for whose hosting I pay with my own money. For me, Substack provided merely a convenient and reliable way of sending out the email version of what really matters — the live blog on the open Web.

I confess, I’ve never really liked the idea of “nice capture” applied to a photograph, even a stunning wildlife image. It smacks of snapping the soul, and the hunting side of it doesn’t appeal either.

Not sure when I will next cross a physical border to another country, but independent cyberspace remains open, for which I am thankful.

The Substackerati - Columbia Journalism Review

Very interesting article about Substack that can't quite decide whether it thinks Substack is a good thing or not. Also, I don't buy Substack's excuses about showing only the top 25 earners. Why not show earners 26-50? Or a random selection of 25 newsletters? It's the Matthew Effect all over again.
