Everything you mention in this piece perfectly describes why I’ve been focusing my efforts on Substack as well, but since I didn’t find any success on social media, YouTube, or have any luck with algorithms, that doesn’t mean much.
When someone like you (someone who has something to lose) switches, it shows bravery, not just frustration.
I’m glad to see the success you’re having on Substack, because I hope other storytellers, travelers, and thinkers make the switch and get back to their roots. I became a paid subscriber, not just because of your content, but because of your values and reasons for being here.
This is awesome! I just joined substack and it's exciting to see a familiar face. I used to watch you and your brother a few years back, and loved seeing the progression of the quality of your videos and storytelling. That's why I was sad you guys came to that fork in the road, but yeah... algorithms and such, totally get it. Really happy to hear you're doing well and returning to writing. This was a great read, looking forward to more.
Marko, I just followed your link here from the Writers Hour and I am so grateful you shared! What you are saying about your personal shift as a result of the pandemic, the disintegration of social media and how to move forward really resonates with me. I am looking forward to following your journey. May you always be overflowing with words!
Great... looking forward to the book club reading! Just ordered it. I'm seriously needing to THINK after 2 years of Covid seclusion (Hubs is immune compromised after cancer treatment). And BTW, I'm very pleased to be a supporting member of your project!
Congrats!!! Can’t wait for all the exciting content & connections.
