  1. Tonight, I watched a big-name writer bully another writer with a smaller presence. Basically, threaten to sue said writer.
    I’m done with #Substack Notes. Watching this happen was the last straw for me. If this is how the “best” of Substack behaves, I want out.
    I do not want to be somewhere where I’ll be subject to this toxicity or see others being subjected to it.
    So, I will no longer be using Notes.
    Am actually relieved cos I can now focus on what matters.

  6. I wanted to quote so much of this article that it would have ended up being a Borges-like 1:1 map of the territory. Instead, I’ll simply share the part of Swarnali Mukherjee’s writing which resonated most with me.

  12. I have over 80 #Substack subscriptions. I realise that I can't keep up. :( Am going to narrow down the list to those that I'll want to build a relationship with & who talk back ;P
    #SubstackNotes is interesting but it is a LOT OF WORK to get noticed!
    I need to be realistic and remind myself that I can't do it all,. Also a frustration - currently the ecosystem lacks diversity.Reading about US issues all the time was wearing me down.

    Probably the weirdest comment I got on the relatively tame and slow #SubstackNotes so far.
    FYI minorities can be racists too.
    Also, obviously he/she does not understand #malaysians
    Dear idiot, I speak 4 languages. I switch comfortably between all, but write mostly in English. Also, Malaysians are not called "Malays". There are Chinese Malaysians, Malay Malaysians etc.
    Oh the stupidity of some people. *Rolls eyes*
