We host Nazis because if we didn’t, things would be even worse — That’s #substack’s policy since quite some time. I’ll leave it up to you to decide if you want to support that take by visiting their site or using it to host your content.

“We don’t like Nazis either—we wish no-one held those views,” Substack's co-founder Hamish McKenzie said in a statement issued at the time. “But some people do hold those and other extreme views. Given that, we don't think that censorship (including through demonetizing publications) makes the problem go away—in fact, it makes it worse.”

% Nadia It seems like there isn't going to be a singular Twitter replacement, but its replacements instead kinda look more like beefed-up mega group chats. I'm impressed by how many co-exist right now. Alternatives that my peer circles are using: * Mastodon = | saw someone describe this as "the types of people in the US who always threaten to move to Canada” and I'm not sure | could describe it more perfectly * Farcaster = crypto * Bluesky = postrats * Notes = writers (?) Aka the migration from the “clear web" to the “cozy web,” per Maggie Appleton: maggieappleton.com/cozy-web Now | want a group chat aggregator that allows me to read all of these feeds in one place! (With Farcaster and Bluesky at least, | think this could actually be feasible?)
