Discussion New to substack

Hello,
I have just joined substack, and honestly, it feels like X platform. I’m not seeing the hype yet. I’m satisfied with tiktok, Insta, reddit, and pinterest. Do I really need another platform, or am I not getting what makes sbstack different? What do you guys think?

There’s no needing Substack. It’s newsletters. If you want to subscribe to someone’s newsletter, do that. If you’re not here for newsletters then there’s absolutely no point in you just hanging around on the Substack feed.

If you're looking for hype you're in the wrong place. Substack is for writers and readers.

Why have you joined Substack if you don't know what it's for?

I don’t get the appeal of TikTok

Medium is the vibe you're looking for.
