Substack and WordPress

Given the current implosion of WordPress (and Matt Mullenweg), I’ve been working on a few other platforms to see what our options might be for myself and clients. Substack is particularly interesting (albeit “closed” source… but “open” source isn’t really helping WP these days). However, the support side of Substack is pretty much awful. What a weird setup and scenario for a platform aimed at creators. But good on them for getting lots of attention. It’s attractive if you’re starting fresh. Trying to move over with years of content is not so easy though.

So, looks like I’m hanging out with WordPress for the forseeable future here.

What a time to be alive.
