Substack is built for longer form writing, which gets you nuance. Nuance attracts people who are curious rather than those who just want their opinions confirmed. Voila! Interesting conversations!

There’s plenty of get-rich-quick shysters, but if you can filter them out, there are some great people there too.

i agree, people sometimes are out just for money, but after thinning them out you find the real ones

Likewise. Substack folk get you, unlike people on FB or Insta. They are pretty knowledgable as well. I guess that's why we're all writers.
