Interesting interesting. I did say I wanted more community engagement options, but I feel like I wanted to lean Discord over Twitter. So I guess we'll see how this shakes out!!!

I mean, it’s not shocking the startup trying to expand its reach would aim for the more shareable/spreadable form over the insulated nature of forum culture, but yeah: it’s important that chat doesn’t get shoved aside entirely.

It looks like these chat comments are themselves restackable (ugh - I'm sure in a week that won't sound weird to say), so maybe that's one way to help with the balance between discussion here and 'out there.' (No clue how this interacts with private posts though).

I dig it! I've never been big on Twitter because of all the excess noise there, but this is a good way to get direct updates from the handful of Substack writers I subscribe to. This got me to finally download the app instead of just reading via email. Which will probably make me more likely to consistently engage in comments, something I don't always do.
