Why I left Substack and the Email renaissance

- Substack sits on top of a trend that’s very dear to me: the democratization of monetized information. In simple terms, writers can earn money by sharing valuable information without the dependency on a publisher or newspaper. That’s not just better for creators but also for consumers because they can have a direct relationship with each other.

- As organic channels like SEO and social are getting more competitive and crowded, email provides an environment you can control.

- I’m bullish on Email as a channel for the future. Not in the way that is has been approached in the past, as a dumpster for offers and notifications, but as a content and communication channel.
