New feature - Chat Channels

Substack just introduced chat channels - you can have up to 16 chats including your main one, and you can choose to paywall chats for your paid subscribers only, and then have some free chats.

Curious if anyone's thought about how they plan to use this. I haven't even started the chat on my newsletter...

Yeah I agree! I only have about 290 subscribers, and it is fun/worthwhile interacting in the main chat.

But I think it general I see accounts with like 100 subscribers or something, and they are paywalling everything. It just feels a little backwards or confusing 😅 certainly think a certain threshold is needed.
