  Interesting, wasn't aware. As long as I can still pick individual authors and pay them directly, I don't care much who Substack chooses to editorialize. Just because someone writes full-time doesn't mean I'm interested in their POV. The authors I follow have built up their own audience over years on Twitter. They suceed because of their unique insights and erudition, not because some Medicis decide to push a narrative.

  I've been convinced this complaint is BS. Substack wasn't trying to push particular points of view; it was simply making a deal that was economically beneficial to them. They also extended that deal to a number of left-leaning/leftist writers, some of whom silently declined—and some of whom took it!
