Del Gulliver@Daojoan while I agree, what do you think the best alternatives are? Medium? Wordpress? I try to encourage my students each class to create an online platform to feature their writing. Sometimes it’s substack, but mostly it’s always been medium.
MFennVT has moved@delgulliver @Daojoan Dreamwidth still exists. Just saying.
Luka Prin/ce Lucija~~forcing students into surveillance situations should be illegal.~~ (edit: that's not a comment on your practice or actions, I'm sorry, in retrospect, it wasn't meant like that, I'm sure your intentions are nothing but good)
these are alternatives - some of them challenge students to learn a bit of underlaying technology like html and ssh-ing to a linux server:

@delgulliver Honestly wherever they're comfortable flexing and getting started for the most part BUT make sure it's somewhere they can easily migrate off.

Leefeller Guy@Daojoan I find everyone putting their hand out for donations annoying. I have a blog which I have not kept up with, but really not all that much into writing anymore.
Alexandro Lacadena 📷@Daojoan 100%, but they love that platform
november 🀄 in my mahjong era@Daojoan I love ("love") that the first time I ever heard about Substack was learning that they were literally paying TERFs and alt-righters to blog on their platform, and now everyone is using it.
Nathan P@Daojoan for many setting up a domain and website is not trivial. Do you have any alternative services you’d recommend?
TBYG@Daojoan After recently trying to deal with substack as a consumer, I couldn't agree more.
@Daojoan I used to follow blogs on blogger, but I don't know, been a while since I used it
