This is fascinating but to read the series is it $8/mo? I’m confused, that is more than most magazine subscriptions.

- robinjhuang 5y agoAs matt says, you can pay for the truth or get lies for free ;) I've been a subscriber for two years and a paid one as soon as it was offered. Really recommend it! We also have open forums and a discord to talk about anything anti-monopoly.
- antihero 5y agoIt does sound cool but I wish there was like a dollar sub. I already pay so much in Patreon fees…I see there’s a free subscription so I’ll see if I keep reading that
- jacobr1 5y agoI want substack to have some kind of overall subscription where I can allocate my overall subscription spend to the newsletters, rather than having a per-newsletter fee. Maybe something like Kindle's system that has some kind page-read/engagement metric against the monthly revenue pool. Maybe something where I get discounting for buying in bulk. 10 newsletters for the price of 5 a la carte or whatever, and I can allocate my "newsletter credits" at will, even switching between them. Also how can libraries and other institutions subscribe and delegate their access?
- WJW 5y agoI'm sure anyone writing lies can also charge money though, just because you pay for something does not make it good.
- pessimizer 5y agoMaybe 1/10 of of the entries are exclusive to subscribers, and they're 95% of the time "open threads" where the commenters are talking to each other with Stoller giving them a few topics to kick it off. So really, the price is $0/mo.
