Whoever runs Substack has added a “notes” feature, which I have not really had time to look at. As regular readers will be ware, “my social media presence” is on Twitter. In addition to making stupid tweets, I use Twitter to get news as well as a filter for reading suggestions. In Ye Olde Days, I used aggregator blogs, but Twitter is a lot better and you have more control over “curation.” (I have found that even the post-Elon algorithmic feed is actually tolerable as the result of strategic blocks, mutes, and “liking” a lot of tweets — so the algorithm knows what to feed me.)
Sounds like you really liked the filtering Twitter allowed the government to do pre-Musk... To each his own.
Then, you only want the notes, and I only want the articles, from those like yourself to whom I subscribe, as the alerts section now crowds out with "testing notes" notes, any replies to comments, or like tbwcwolf, the lack thereof. First impressions.
Considering that I wrote that I was not having problems with the post-Elon algorithmic feed - an extremely common complaint - not sure where you pulled that theory from. Musk is killing Twitter, so I need to look at alternatives.
Substack will need to make the newsletter interface decoupled from Notes for Notes to work, which should deal with the notifications issue.
