Another factor (for him) seems to be —
He perceived Twitter as being prone to censorship. Including politically motivated censorship. Censorship of individual posts, and even by suspending Twitter account.
And thus risky to build an audience on Twitter — since your digital identity could be taken away from you at any time (by Twitter)
He felt that Substack was not only much more tolerant, but had a policy of being anti-censorship.

One factor (for him) seems to be —
He seems to tend to prefer to write long-form content.
Long essays.
Even series of long posts that could be turned into a book.

I have an old friend who, when he left Twitter, went over to Substack.
He has an academic background. And, by profession is a ghost writer. He has also written a number of his own books.
If you are interested in growing and spreading the Fediverse, then —
Why did he choose Substack over other alternatives?

Update. Linda McMahon posted her May 5 letter to #Harvard on #Twitter / #X. I guess that's an official channel these days.

Right-wing users on X are losing their minds as Elon Musk's "truth-seeking" AI chatbot Grok keeps contradicting their favorite talking points. The problem? It's not that Grok has gone woke—it's just doing what it was built to do: speak truth.

The thing I love about the #Fediverse is it's a bunch of people from all walks of life, all around the world, building things and enjoying other people's things and it all meshes together to create this massive network and sense of community that you just can't get with centralized networks like #Twitter or #Bluesky :)
Here's to all my Fedi friends! 🥂
Or it could be a post about #queer people, left handed people or exoplanets.

Congratulations to @Mastodon on bringing on @andypiper to head up comms.
I had the honor of working with Andy @ #Twitter and his tireless advocacy for the Twitter community then and for the #Fediverse community now makes him a great representative for the future of decentralized social media.
#Twitter ja ha perdut 1 milió d'usuaris a Espanya i 11 milions en tot Europa.
Ànims! aquest és el camí 👏 deixeu sol a Elon Musk.

#ProjectSaturn: ""We define the #attentioneconomy on #socialmedia. Speech on the internet is already free, but reach isn't and it shouldn't be."
#Agrawal wanted only tweets in the tightest ring, the ones ranked at 1, to be boosted by Twitter's algorithm. Those would represent the best of what Twitter had to offer. The lower scores would receive less of a boost from Twitter, and users would have to seek to see them."

Finnland und Deutschland halten X die Treue, statistisch gesehen
X hat in einem Jahr mehr als 13 Prozent aller Nutzer in der EU verloren. Die eingeloggte Nutzerschar ist stabiler. Doch gibt es viele Doppelzählungen.

"Wette niemals gegen Elon": Letzte Kredite von Twitter-Übernahme verkauft
Vor weniger als einem Jahr sind die an der Twitter-Übernahme beteiligten Banken davon ausgegangen, dass das ein riesiges Verlustgeschäft war. Das stimmte nicht.
