If you want to leave Substack because you don’t want to be beholden to a centralized platform, then great! That’s a decent reason to leave.

But everyone whining about Substack not having tight censorship is silly. The only reason there’s censorship online is because of advertisers. Companies don’t want their names next to Nazi propaganda, which is fair. Substack is subscription based so there’s no point in all the pomp and show of censorship.

Censorship is stupid, leaving Substack because you want Substack to decide what people can and cannot write is stupid.
