I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period
You always own your intellectual property, mailing list, and subscriber payments. With full editorial control and no gatekeepers, you can do the work you most believe in.
Would love something similar for global news in the months/years ahead. America kind of dominates the discourse already, would love to learn about things beyond the US.
We'll be having tabs come and go for all sorts of things, many of which will be specialized/localized! For example, we'll shortly have a NFL week 1 tab, but only for people who have shown an interest in sports. Definitely expect to see some for global news events as they happen.
Oh that's amazing! Excited for that. Just food for thought: I'm quite interested in sports, but have completely separated that from my Substack, so there would be no indication that I was interested in sports. Anyway! That's an exciting update.
Kidding, but we are working on more clear ways to explicitly indicate interests or disinterests in things. You can actually long-press (on mobile) these tabs to hide/show disinterest already, and we're soon launching some ways to show positive interest.
