First off, your titles never fail to disappoint :) Substack is definitely a different type of ecosystem that I would hate for it to succumb to the relentless marketing ploys of dead internet bots. Unfortunately, I feel this space is already being invaded, and it's a shame.

A little off-topic, but I've noticed some celebrities joining Substack (non-writers), and I question why. Sure, maybe they want to read a good essay, but honestly, they're there to algowhore as a means to stay relevant (in my *humble* opinion).

And yes, you've discovered a new word, and I love it! It totally fits.
