I find myself ditching the paywalled publications. And stick to the ones that are free.

The paywalled gardens only create a culture of yes-men who never disagree. These bubbles of fakeness dont have any real value to me, only a few journalist with big stories i keep eventhough they are behind a wall.

I wish the wall didnt defeat its purose.

And that paid subscriptions wouldnt exfiltrate my Euros into 'dollhairs'.

Netherlands first baby! :~)

Dont get me wrong, im not against Substack, yet im also not so much for it..

Additionally the new livestreaming upgrade raises questions as it will most likely turn substack into a streaming platform that must compete with the AI driven surveillance machines. I hope im going to be proven wrong. Time will tell.

hey moebius long time no banter, been busy pulling the years research into a constructive bible like substack course to assist everyone at every level, its got the lot. the entire ecosystem, its not a paywalled publication its got a tiny price of 59.99 to recoup some of the ridiculous investment we have made this year. we investigated every platform conected to the substack ecosystem and built an up to date ground up timeless system. we will do a full december 2026 overhaul ready for 2027. its a beast. what have i missed in 2 weeks anything new under the sun, ive had some light eyes on and just seen same same

Yeah. That investment is indeed huge, and earning it back will be a big task.

My comment was to point out that Substacks paywall style is a bit odd as it creates a group think situation, it also walls out trolls, but this tips the balance to the other extreme.

I say this here as to me it makes sense to mention it to someone who did an investment that large, to make a point that in my view is essential to any journslism. As an 'unbalanced' platform does not help journalism to be unbiassed.

Not sure how to put this in better wording right now.

I'll keep reading your posts, and approach them from controversial angles.

theres only the truth of the matter. period. we are all one under a defragmented umbrella of insanity. i have given what i can to provide some shade, its a platform truth course that expands far beyond what substack is. 59.99 for 138k well crafted non watsed words that can be worn as armour and wielded like swords if applied in the correct way. i sent over 500 emails out to farm orgs so ops governers you name of the looking american phospahet crisis. 2 replies. heart broken, famine locked in. i have all the global data. it would seem the sound of inevitability is locked in smith.the system is huge…. every mainstream you tube account contacted zero reply, but real info. at the same point my dm’s locked through uk internet laws, hilarious. find me ill send you the data its now 3 markers strong so verified by my strict standards. if no one listens at least a few can buckle up accordingly.
