Leave a Review Substack
New to app review?
Being prompted to review an application after only a few days worth of spare time usage, from a guy that isn't very internet savvy; may be a part of the development process of platform? I've only recently come to know of SubStack, through contacts on other platforms. I don't fully understand the organization of the "library topics", yet; I find it comparable to setting a toddler loose in a public library, that has no clue to how the books are organized... though I've managed to find a few items of general interest to me by happenstance browsing. I can say, when looking for my contacts by name (searching), I have no problems finding exactly where I need to get to, thus far.
As I'm not very familiar with the platform yet, I'm not displeased, but I haven't found any form of "how to use this platform", or instructional, "tips and tricks" page yet either?
I'm sure at a later time I may be prompted for another review? Hopefully by then, I'll be able to deliver a better review?Show lessJasonDPhillips
Great product, missing a few minor improvements
All and all a great app and platform that's simple to use, so I'm just going to focus on my perceived negatives.
1. I suffer from mild dyslexia and have found relief from using the OpenDyslexic font wherever possible. Unfortunately, substack doesn't provide that as an option among its font choices.
2. Since the platform allows adding other RSS feeds without fuss, it's quickly become my default aggregator. But you can only add new RSS feeds from the website, not the app, making it frustrating when I find a new feed while on mobile.
3. The app's minimalist design is simple and generally easy to navigate, but I often find myself not knowing where to tap to get to a specific page or menu. And the app icon in the corner deceptively doesn't do anything. It could benefit from another pass at intuitiveness.
Regardless of these minor shortcomings, I would highly recommend it as both a consumer and a creator.Show lessjoeyjoejoejr Shabadoo

Substack Review
Still finding my way. Joined specifically to read an article by Mary Katherine Ham. Picked a few others. I am on the free version which seems to be fine.
I would be willing to support some writers by subscribing to the pay side…but…I don’t know enough yet, and IF it is $4-5 bucks a month and I subscribed to say 20…my math says that’s a half tank of gas here in Biden’s America. Maybe a buck or two each or a limit on per month views. Dunno. Still figuring it out.
So far so good.Show lessCalifchip
Options are now open
Love to have variety back after the scaling back of information that was happening from other forms of media.kerrin63
Reading the Truth in American News is hard to find
Even before Drudge appeared on the sene it was a challenge to find honest journalism and I don’t mean that they needed to be in agreement with my perceptions, just honest.
And yes, if they “Sold Out” as on the case of “ The Drudge Report” then I pack up my time and seek out new journalists! Frustrating but necessary if I am determined to be well educated & informed.
If I find a news source that is anything but honest then I move on ( this happened quite frequently ). But I have been diligent and have found a small group of educators aka journalists “because” that’s what journalism does - it educates & informs so that I can make informed decisions. And so I thank all of you who are true to your profession.
This latest article by Emerald Robinson is a perfect example; not that I already lost trust in Lutz but I just wasn’t aware of so much in her latest writing of him and his antics.
This helps me confirm my suspicions and complete my life long passion for the truth on people & subjects.
So to that end, I want to say “Thank You” Emerald Robinson for using my time wisely. Since I have precious little of it to source my providers, it’s a confirmation that my new subscription to you has already confirmed my investment in this endeavor has paid in dividends yet again.
Please continue…..

Hang On!
After being swept up and away in a tsunami of graft and political corruption, bolstered by and cloaked in, a swirl of mind-clobbering cultural insanity, we in the hinterlands of America found an unexpected fingerhold to try and cling to rationality. There is apparently a froth of sanity perilously floating around the tumultuous surges of opaque floodwaters of lies and hysteria in our society. Like a snatched breath between dunkings, Substack may provide a glimmer of hope that the sun will shine again and that perhaps the final curtain won’t descend with a flash of retina-searing death from the skies brought on by our collective surrender to madness. In other words, I find Substack helpful and entertaining (esp the comments thereof)!Show lessWhitehouse_Willie
Enjoyable app
I do hit and miss reading on Substack. I subscribe to a few writers and happily enjoy infrequent free posts from others. But it has been difficult to keep up my reading in an organized fashion.
This app, however, provides a clean and enjoyable reading experience. I leave the emails alone, and read the articles here. I am sure Substack planned it this way, that I now value their distributed content more than before. If you read their stuff, get this app.Show lessAppStoreDevotee
Thank you.
Beautifully written, as always. The heartfelt observation shines light on what we need more light on in this country- and that’s the goodness of this country- seeming victim of all that’s bad. Of course it’s still here. We have to fight to let it shine, which is indeed a shame, but for those of us who remember times which goodness seemed more prevalent, and for those longing for those times, it’s worth it to fight for-Show lessMarcblackwell
Fantastic platform with great content!
I love the variety, depth and quality of the writing and I applaud the Substack founders’ commitment to free speech and to not manipulating readers’ choices. It is my favourite platform for great content you simply can’t get anywhere else, because the MSM treats news as entertainment and has been completely corrupted by governments, its sponsors and its shareholders into being a propaganda or public relations machine for those vested interests.Show lessFionaPeru
