I see @[email protected] in the list of mods in this community and I know from [email protected] that he feels strongly about substacks. But as far as I can see there is nothing on the sidebar here that follows similar rules as, say [email protected]’s Rule 1. He mods both communities and Rule 1 here says “only links to articles”, whereas Rule 1 there says “news articles only”, so I assume that qualification identifies a meaningful difference. On the contrary, I see that “original content” is encouraged. At any rate, if this violates the rules of this community, sorry, and please update your rules because it’s not otherwise clear.
Personally I feel some of the best content for news and politics are hosted on substack. Sadly due to the subjective nature of choosing a post to share here opens up a possibility of unverified opinion pieces. - I’ll say it again though, I very much welcome such content here as it can support other points of views, perspectives that otherwise may circumvent the biases in the MSM.
