No. I'm not trying to be rude, and I used to support a lot of Substacks (including this one), I just don't like Substack because they platform nazis. I request that users go to other platforms when I unsubscribe (like beehiiv or ghost) or fill out surveys so my money doesn't help to platform nazis.
I totally understand these misgivings. It has been on my mind a lot since all the news about Nazis on the platform came out. I haven't left because a) I'm not very tech-savvy, so setting up on a new platform would be a huge lift for me right now; b) the other platforms don't support podcasting the same way, so I would have to make a lot of changes; and c) there are Nazis everywhere (again, yikes) and I'm not sure that transferring to Beehiiv or Ghost solves that problem.
I really enjoy your history round ups especially since you include links to detailed articles on a given topic. Also thanks for introducing me to Non-boring history!
Leave substack!
Are you being rude or is this some kind of joke I'm out of the loop on?
I’m pretty sure this is a spam account

Dude, you gotta put that in the original comment then. Your comment looks like you're just hating on Valorie.

That is totally my bad. I was just thinking about leaving a quick comment when I responded to the poll about other ideas.
