This is lovely. I have noticed a drop in comments too and hadn't considered that might have been because of notes / people being subbed to more content. I was really disappointed I haven't had any comments on my podcast about sensory processing, but maybe folks just haven't had a chance to listen.

I'm not doing any design either mostly because I love the app and it doesn't show here! Maybe they want people to use Substack as a free homepage and that's great for someone starting out.

I also love what you are saying about choosing the energy and intensify to show up here. It feels a real antidote to something I read yesterday. Am in a lot of feelings today and this was just a really soothing listen. 💞

Thanks Sarah. Yes it was almost instant and now if I re share a post on notes people are reminded and come back over. It’s like sharing your insta post to insta stories - a bit tedious for the creator but bound to happen here with more folks here and as things settle with Notes. I used to be able to “finish” Substack and put my phone down and now I can’t so I really need new boundaries on it all.

I do want to listen to your pod and haven’t yet.

That makes sense! Viewing it like Insta Stories kind of helps, but is also a bit frustrating because it brings the algorithm into it all. I had someone "subscribe" yesterday and it said they were subbed to 191 other Substacks. Obviously this person can't possibly read them all. So maybe they are using Substack as a Twitter replacement. It's all changing so fast!
