They would need to hire a team for that. They are not going to run their own servers. Now they are distracted from writing. Back to substack they go.

- PaulHoule 3y agoSuperstar substackers make upward of $1M a year and can afford the team. Myself I developed a paid API gateway (oddly commercial API gateways that bribe bloggers to spam spam spam to promote themselves and have a huge marketing budget offer every feature other than charging to access your API) and an email newsletter script that ran serverless in AWS. Both have run for years without me looking at them. If they had a baby that would be a substack replacement. Quite a few ‘creator economy’ types who have had problems with the big platforms have struck out on their own like this guy https://www.combatvetnews.com/ https://www.combatvetnews.com/
- jdminhbg 3y ago> Superstar substackers make upward of $1M a year and can afford the team. $1M means $100k in Substack take, how much of a team are you going to buy for that? Yes, you might be able to contract a team to set you up for less than that, but you might also not know what you're doing and contract a team that wastes $50k and doesn't deliver.
