As matt says, you can pay for the truth or get lies for free ;) I've been a subscriber for two years and a paid one as soon as it was offered. Really recommend it! We also have open forums and a discord to talk about anything anti-monopoly.

It does sound cool but I wish there was like a dollar sub. I already pay so much in Patreon fees…I see there’s a free subscription so I’ll see if I keep reading that
I want substack to have some kind of overall subscription where I can allocate my overall subscription spend to the newsletters, rather than having a per-newsletter fee.

Maybe something like Kindle's system that has some kind page-read/engagement metric against the monthly revenue pool.

Maybe something where I get discounting for buying in bulk. 10 newsletters for the price of 5 a la carte or whatever, and I can allocate my "newsletter credits" at will, even switching between them.

Also how can libraries and other institutions subscribe and delegate their access?

I'm sure anyone writing lies can also charge money though, just because you pay for something does not make it good.
