I'm ambivalent about Notes. I worry about it being a new social media but with a closed loop of other Substack writers. I love to write here, but I don't want to live here. Your thoughts,

Sherman?

Notes is leaving me traumatized, because I was looking for shelter from the social media storm. Can I ask what the negatives were over the positives, and . . . what do you think the difference on Substack will be?

Sounds good! I'm going to try this, too.

I tried it also. Seems cool. A small part of me is getting slight alarm bells a la Substack starting to possibly morph into something a little too akin to Twitter? Maybe I'm wrong. I hope.

I joined on Notes as well. Hoping it is better place than Twitter!

I've been wondering what use Notes might be put to that doesn't create more noise so to speak. I "restacked" a comment in order to start a discussion, so I'm interested that you've started a discussion on Notes too. I shall explore now!
