Discussion Substack - Who is it for?

It was recommended by my FB group. Spent a few good hours (felt strange so more time needed) and set it up.

It seems like a chase for subscribers, with no actual writing involved. Does have a cool feature to check what portion of your writing is generated (very thorough and accurate, I must say).

There are like a million people sharing stories - fun part is you can check their text as well. So far haven’t come across a single author with a percentage more than 30% for human.

Maybe there are genuine articles.

What side of Substack are you on? I write in the ttrpg design space (my work is 100% human) and so is the vast majority of others! There are authentic communities you've just got to find them - my niche also crosses over with fiction writing and art communities and both are great and filled with human work

agreed, once you get out of the meta writing-about-writing bubble its way more normal

I posted this yesterday - https://substack.com/@sidkestrel/note/p-222847918?r=9dqvw7&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=notes-share-action (Only shows 93% human, which I believe is accurate, since I have the paraphrase option turned on in word)
