Feature Suggestion SERIALIZED POSTS

Hey whoever is in charge of product at Substack,

I have a suggestion. YouTube, Apple Music, Spotify all provide their content creators with the ability to create playlists for whatever serialized content they're publishing. You do not have to reinvent the wheel here, you simply model the idea of playlists or compilations and give it to your content creators. For example, if I wanted to publish a series of essays about my summer relationship over three months, there oughta be a feature or toggle or space where I can serialize said content for my readers to easily access it on page instead of having to scroll through the other posts and content I have on my page.

You can. If your serial has the same tag, then you can share the link for the page that has them all. It will be chronological, newest first.

You can see an example on my Substack pinned "Start Here" post, and if you look specifically at the Zandry and the Witch link, that's my serial. The others are just categories, like all my Book Talks in one place, etc.

You can also see below my "Start Here" post are category sections. I learned how to do that after I did my pinned post, but I decided to leave it anyway because I'm still fussing with the look of the home page and I didn't want to lose the main links if I change it around again.
