I’ll be interested to see how fast someone rolls a Substack-to-Article plugin. Curious how they’ll decide which niche blogs make the cut for inclusion.

Since leaving the bird site I've been missing some of my news sources. Looking forward to seeing if Artifact fills that niche for me.

I know this isn't really a Twitter thing, but this is one of the things I miss most about oldTwitter. This seems like it really has the potential to inspire discussion!

Artifact sounds interesting, but I’m thinking how viral can an app go about consuming articles? Articles take a long time to read, and it can be information overload. The thoughts on articles are likely what will make it be more interesting. Kinda makes me think of a Twitter of just Quote Tweets. Regardless, I’ve signed up to the waiting list!
