Substack wants to reinvent the wheel.
In recent years the newsletter platform has tried to expand to micro-blogging, TikTokers, and full websites. Now the company is inching towards something its leadership has long criticized: advertising and social networks.
The New York Times reports that Substack is doubling down on its Notes feature, which is similar to X or Meta’s Threads. Substack raised $100 million in a recent funding round. In June, the company said it wasn’t planning to be profitable anytime soon.

CEO Chris Best drops that fact onstage at The Information’s “Future of Influence” event in Los Angeles. He also says Substack was “accidentally cash flow positive” in the first quarter of this year, but isn’t planning to be profitable soon.Alex Heath (The Verge)
