the algorithm doesn't show your content to anyone! I have been writing notes for the past week and I see on stats that my notes, each, have only been shown to one or two, maximum 3 other accounts! this is nonsense! the chance of getting any visibility is near zero! I thought there most be a problem so tried to contact their support. apparently they've got only a chat bot as support, which doesn't even work! very frustrating! I invested so much time for something like this!

Does most of what I need, but doesn't always work as intended. For example, when I send out a test version of a newsletter, I get a notification via the app saying I can read it there. This function has never worked. Additionally, not being able to edit newsletters from the app is super unhelpful. Overall, both the app and the web version could be more user friendly. The taxonomy needs a lot of work. Aside from that, I like the app and the Substack platform.

Irrespective of the content, and there are some good writers on substack (if you want to subscribe to them), the app is extremely bug-gy. Windows Web access works slightly better, but the Android app is one frustration after another. Post an article with a serious mistake, you can't edit it on the app, only on the desktop. It's also very slow. It doesn't show up in the view of open apps, 'close all' doesn't close it, what you are typing can be lost if you switch apps...
