Holy crap this is thorough & useful, thanks!

Oh! That's what I couldn't find; thank you very much!

Thank you, Molly! So far my main question is monthly cost - I know it says "from $15/mo" but do you know how much it goes up when you're in the hundreds/thousands of subscribers?

Oh, I just realized you were talking about your newsletter service re: 1000 subs. Yeah, that's a LOT to pay for a thousand-person mailing list!! What are you using that costs $40/mo?

That's my big question - how much it costs monthly for X amount of subs. (Hey, 1,000 is nothing to sniff at!!!)

Also thank you for sticking up for people who can't just LEAVE Substack. My newsletter service was $144/mo and I NEEDED to cut that expense. Folks yelling "quit Nazi Substack, there are HUNDREDS of other options!!" are completely naive to how expensive it is when you have a 10k+ sub list!

Kate, thank you for writing all of this! I dropped my old newsletter service and was going to make the easy switch to a free Substack, but, y'know: Nazis. I'm EXHAUSTED by the idea of scrutinizing & learning yet another platform, but, here we are. Your synopsis & pros/cons of Ghost is v. helpful!

Why Platformer is leaving Substack We’ve seen this movie before — and we won’t stick around to watch it play out

Does anyone here use Ghost as a supplement/replacement for Substack/Patreon? I'm intrigued, but I don't know any creators who use it! Curious to hear from the user side, too. Gimme your opinions, I desire them.

Weeeehhhh cute cute!

Carla is KILL-ING-IT on her new project Settlers of the Storm Worlds!! Loooook at these inks, that delicious hand lettering!! The SOUND EFFECTS!! This woman RULES.

I spend an awful lot of time picking the perfect imperfect scrap paper for preliminary sketches. 👌🏻

Perfect. Very 2025. 🤌

Pay us you filthy rich cowards!! (Good point about asking us upfront. Shit, they coulda gotten a cheap rate from most of us! They CAN AFFORD US)

Omg this is such a good warning 😮

Well “occasionally something edible happens” is now the official title of my garden, so thank you! 😂

4) but also I pay as little as possible for my garden! Build everything outta bamboo, get seedlings from friends who grew too many, seed swap, hit seed libraries, etc etc. The time sink is still outlandish vs food output, but it gets me outside and brings me enormous joy, so. :)

As a comic artist who had an art director for one cover*, hard agree. *it ruled.

Oh I forgot to warn people!! Luckily all the ‘weens are dressed in costumes.

Waaooowww this list!! Classic!! (💕💕thank you!!)

Oh thank god there was a glitch in the drone! (She was still injured, but only in the ankle, she’s okay.)

I know we’re only 4 days into October but I made my first jaunt into town to marvel at the ‘ween decorations and was not disappointed.

A relic!! Aw thanks hon, ECCC was one of my faves & I’m glad you made it out! (Thanks for re-reading AGAIN, that’s such a compliment!)

Aww yay!! Thanks for letting me know, Chris! 💫

“Yours,” 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

Idk y’all’s origin story but I hope this is what happened to you.

*takes out readers* oh yeah good choice on that last one

As someone who hand-letters in carefully-laid out lowercase… I can’t read all caps comics as aNYTHING OTHER THAN MY MOM WRITING AN EMAIL CIRCA 2012 LOVE MOM

Aww thanks man. :.)

Only the real ones know. 💕🚽

What are you hiding in there?? Precious jewelry?!
