It's time to gradually exit Twitter. While Substack is great, it's better to set up a paid newsletter at your own domain. You can do this in an hour and maintain it for less than $30 per month. I wrote up a tutorial here to walk you through it:https://balajis.com/set-up-a-paid-newsletter-at-your-own-domain/ …

Why gradually exit Twitter? It's not just the hack. There are many overlapping issues around security, authentication, pseudonymity, distribution, incentives, and culture. I greatly respect Jack and everything he's built. But we need a change.https://balajis.com/how-to-gradually-exit-twitter/ …

Feel free to stop after you set up your paid newsletter. It's a useful thing in its own right. But in terms of what's next, we may be able to knit these newsletters together into a decentralized media community, with individual sites as the new profiles.https://balajis.com/how-to-gradually-exit-twitter/ …

By the way, I have no stake in Ghost. It's open source. cc @JohnONolanhttps://ghost.org/about/
