Substack is entirely replaceable with Nostr longforms?

Technically, but very few people read NIP-23 articles. Ghost is a better option in my opinion, even though I hate to admit it.

Websites are cool. Have you thought about having a website?

If pure reach is the goal, why Nostr in the first place lol 😆 But seriously though, Substack is basically just a website and an email list. Sites like decent newsroom and highlighter do present NIP-23 articles as regular "blog-like" content, which I think is a good way to go... It presents the article to the public, and the comments section and monetization are Nostr and zaps respectively...

It’s all everyone had in the 90s and it was cool. Decentralized without censorship. Make websites great again and forget about all these platforms.

Did you ever figure out the Coinkite letters being sent out to plebs that had nym’s only used for coinkite?

@NVK are you leaning toward self hosting the newsletter or a nostr native long form setup? getting deplatformed by an SV company with no notice is the whole case for owning your distribution

Self hosted ghost instance.

the blogging is easy, what about the emailing? moved to beehiiv

Ghost makes it easy, just set up a mailgun account and set the API key in ghost.

Nostr? 🤭
