Imagine the doctor walking into the room and saying "Congratulations! The tumor is growing faster than your legacy cells."
- doctorpangloss 2y agoYeah, I don't think this is a good thing. It's just to say that Kyle Chayka and this HN commenter don't offer any remedies. They go and complain and mock people's superstitious Instagram shitposts. If you care about narrative creative media, the best thing you can do is pay for it. Whatever that means to you. That is my remedy. The New Yorker isn't going to go out and promote Substack, and the deeper you think about why, the more you realize it is the New Yorker who are the assholes.
- ishtanbul 2y agoI don’t have a remedy to offer for the problem at large, which is why I didnt suggest one, but on a personal level I would read the New Yorker, which is high quality content, imo
