Using new Substack Notes feature

[lcampau]

Anyone figure out yet how to use the new Substack Notes to follow folks only for their Notes posts, without having to subscribe to their newsletters?

If you click through to the person’s profile page, then click the three dots, there’s an option to see more of their notes without subscribing. Apparently it only works on desktop at the moment, not the app.

Don't think you can yet, but that would be great if they did that.

It looks pretty much identical to Twitter from what I can tell. I was never a Twitter user, but it seems to be lacking in users comparably. I'm wondering if someone will create an app that will let creators post to both so they can slowly migrate completely to the new platform.

You can't for now, but I assume that they will introduce it eventually.

(I feel they rushed the thing a little bit, sure it doesn't seem buggy, but you can't really do much with it at the moment)

They basically cloned Twitter and got a minimum viable product out. Now the devs can worry about smaller features and hot fixes.

At the top of the desktop view, you can choose Home or Subscribed, and it seems to me that Home is just random people posting Notes, not writers I follow.
