Yeah I’m still trying to figure out what substacks to throw my money at but it’s a crapshoot lol. I like a lot of stuff I see and I want to jump in further but those damn paywalls. Actually as I’m writing this I just had a thought: maybe treat subscriptions like tickets to a show. By a few subscriptions check stuff out for a few weeks then jump ship if it’s not really interesting anymore. Maybe if I do this I’ll eventually find the ones I want to stick with. I’m still kinda new to this platform and trying to figure it out. I subbed to yours because I liked the post about the comic maker platform.
Yes, many premium communities, like ours, don't have commitments, so you can easily check them out and see if they're for you. Some communities allow you to buy a lifetime ticket which can be a huge gamble upfront but so far, I've been very lucky. Fortunately Substack at least gives you a little teaser so you can get an idea of what's behind the paywall.
Thanks for you kind words, we have a lot more visions/ideas in the queue to come in the future. I want to also expand on the comic maker platform idea and set up an open source repo as a rally point for those that are interested in making it into something. I think it's helpful to show how ideas and passions are shaped into products and mixing the latest technologies can really make something special.
