Just leave Substack. Please. Ghost and Beehiiv will help you.
Posts by Anti-Substack Labeler: Substack Funds Nazis
Want an alternative to Substack that's integrated with Bluesky/atproto? @leaflet.pub has you covered!
Here's the Andrew Tate stuff in case you somehow missed it
More reasons why Substack sucks, aside from the Nazi and Andrew Tate angles:
It's getting to the point where people will have always been against being on Substack. I got into a kerfuffle months ago with the head of a decades old used-to-be-funny blog and now they're covering the fact that Andrew Tate is on Substack and yeah we're still on it but at least it's free

I'm so glad people find this labeler useful! That was my goal in making it
⬇️ all this is still true *and* now you can pay us btw :) 😊
Leaflet Pro gets you publication analytics right now, and more soon (like newsletter mode!) — also helps us keep 99% of all Leaflet's great features free for everyone ✨
Did you know Buttondown will migrate your newsletter *for you*? It's amazing.
Just tagging the labeler with @labeler.antisubstack.fyi will let you link to the labeler profile (and bonus I actually get the notification and notice your post!)
You can use the Anti-Substack labeler on here to hide (or label) Substack links: bsky.app/profile/labe...
It's never been easier to leave Substack. I'm happy to help you.
I make more money by NOT being on Substack than I ever did on Substack. Partially because I'm no longer paying 10% to that company, but (a) I didn't lose subscribers like I thought I might; and (b) increasingly, NOT being on Substack is a selling point, as people don't want to support that company.
Care in the Academy is now OFF substack, and exclusively available on Ghost. You can check out our past posts at the link below - new stuff coming soon! care-in-the-academy.ghost.io
At this point, I feel it incumbent to point out that Substack was started by the guys behind Kik, a "private direct messaging" app which became known as the Internet's #1 app for child predators due to its complete lack of safeguards: www.bbc.com/news/uk-4556...
Regular reminder that I won't read, share, or engage with your content if it's hosted on Substack.
Once again, I am holding a FREE event to help publishers leave Substack this Thursday.

I know from experience that leaving Substack has a cost. No other platform is as *easy* to get up and running, any time you change platforms, you're going to get significant churn. But, my friends who are on Substack--I don't think it will get easier to leave, might as well do it now.
As far as I am aware the visibility issue is resolved! If you notice any issues then let me know and I'll do some troubleshooting.
you're putting your journalism behind a paywall, handing 20% of your revenue to Substack, and requiring people to hand some of their hardearned money (which they're paying to you as a subscription fee) to nazis and sex traffickers in order to read what you have to say.
that is profoundly fucked up.
If you see this, please subscribe to @labeler.antisubstack.fyi to keep your skyline Substack-free.
That's me being polite.
Now that Substack is pushing ANDREW TATE, I will be blocking people who bypass my antisubstack filter.
Thanks, Mgt.

Oh shit. Substack are the Kik guys? Holy shit. We're talking Roblox level predatory shit on that app. Oh my goodness that's nutso. They're bad people fr
FUCKING LEAVE SUBSTACK
NO SHIT THEY SUPPORT NAZIS
IF YOU BIG PUBS LEFT SUBSTACK
THEY WOULD HAVE LESS $$ FFS
a lot of us already made the leap because we believe that fighting fascism is more important than doing the easy thing and complaining about it
hey support NAZI-FREE liberatory writing:
don't make me tap the motherfucking sign
Labeler just restarted and now I'm seeing labels on android again, backfilled and everything. Hopefully everything is back to normal now?
I don't see them on the android app, Firefox on mobile, chrome on windows, or Firefox on a Mac when logged into my main account. When logged into my alt they show up regardless of browser/app. I think the appview must be desynced but only for a handful of accounts and I don't understand how
I hope we get an answer! I tried posting in the discord for atproto devs but no one has reported anything similar.
The labeler is not set up to accept reports unfortunately but if you send me the post I can try to figure out why it got missed
Were labels not being picked up at all or just not showing up on certain appview instances? I can't see labels emitted by this labeler on my main account for the past few hours but they're showing up when I log into an alt and I would rather not have to redeclare the labeler if I can avoid it
