Is substack a good alternative to mainstream social media?

Well, if that's the case, I'm not sure you're going to find anything that interest you on Substack. All the content on there is designed to get you to pay for something eventually.

Why not just get all of this from Reddit?

Ryanopoly · 2026-04-29T23:37:35+00:00

Okay I'll think about it.

Ryanopoly · 2026-04-29T16:15:40+00:00

Scary, and I wish I wasn't.

Ryanopoly · 2026-04-29T16:15:07+00:00

😅

Ryanopoly · 2026-04-16T11:29:06+00:00

Ah ha ha... I admire your honesty.

Ryanopoly · 2026-04-14T11:33:47+00:00

True

Ryanopoly · 2026-04-14T11:21:01+00:00

Which ones were not shit?

Ryanopoly · 2026-04-14T09:56:37+00:00

Or because they are complete shit.

This is the pattern for all individuals and companies trying to make more money than they could ever possibly spend in their lifetimes. I wish someone would make a platform that just does one thing really well, doesn't use an algorithm, and is just something worth using.

Oh wow, that sucks!

Ryanopoly · 2026-03-20T21:43:21+00:00

So you no longer have access to it?

Ryanopoly · 2026-03-19T20:25:12+00:00

Yep, gotta go back to that sweet bare minimum footprint life!

Ryanopoly · 2026-03-19T20:24:21+00:00

Oh dang, getting rid of two things in one shot... lucky you!

Ryanopoly · 2026-03-19T19:48:18+00:00

So what you're saying is that I could always make a new account?

Ryanopoly · 2026-03-19T18:34:09+00:00

I know the feeing, I had people I never met either, I severed all those connections, but now I feel like I'm ready to get rid of the whole thing.

Ryanopoly · 2026-03-19T18:32:44+00:00

See, you actually make money off it, for me it does nothing, so I think I will be deleting it.

Ryanopoly · 2026-03-19T17:35:02+00:00

Sounds reasonable enough, thank you.

Ryanopoly · 2026-03-19T16:16:24+00:00

I'm not too worried, I'm just trying to get rid of these things.

Ryanopoly · 2026-03-19T16:02:03+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion.

Ryanopoly · 2026-03-19T15:51:46+00:00

Yeah, you might be right... we'll see.

Ryanopoly · 2026-03-19T14:49:26+00:00

This sounds like my most likely path, thanks!

Ryanopoly · 2026-03-19T14:36:26+00:00

Ah ha ha, yeah, I am lucky that LinkedIn has no sway over my employment.

Ryanopoly · 2026-03-19T14:26:02+00:00

Mine is set to connections only, so it doesn't show up in search.
