Wait, so chill subs will actually have 10,000 typewriters going non stop… we will eventually write Shakespeare!

This sounds really lovely. All we can hope, as users, is that Chill Subs won't go the way of Substack and gradually forget its purported audience (writers) in favor of homogenizing the platform with every other one out there. If this truly prioritizes writers, it could be an amazing thing.

Well we promise to never give anyone the option of launching a podcast. But also for sure, no. We would never have the incentive or resources to do this kind of thing and since we have no investors, nobody can ever force us to for the sake of bloating our audience.

Though I can't afford it now, in my heart I am already a premium member.

Benjamin- yes please. I started a Substack called poetry clubhouse for all the reasons- just to share our poems- help with editing- resources for submitting- community for the sake of community. (I plugged chillsubs there). But I really have no idea about how all the tech stuff works so if you build it I will bring all five of my subscriber clubhouse buddies with me. I’m already a premium member and plan to keep that up because you make me laugh. See how easy?

Yay! Thank you! I hope we will pull it over. It’s what we’ve always dreamed would exist

This sounds AWESOME! You’ll never get a pleading cat from me, because I already believe 😏
