I have only just worked out the difference between a thread, a chat and a note. If subscribers agree, I will use threads to share content linked to my previous posts…
I rather think that the threads, notes and Chats are an attempt to be more like Facebook. Linked are veering in the same direction. I am really happy with the content posted on SubStack and I ignore all the threads, notes, chats. Life is too short.
I spend far more time following comment threads and commenting on others' post and comments than I do "creating original content", because I value the interactivity of that process more, and it helps to keep my thoughts nuanced- otherwise I tend to bacome a 'stuck-record' of post-Keynesian diatribe. If my commentary becomes somewhat expansive, I tick the 'share to notes' box, and if it becomes very expansive, or a more complex train of thought emerges over time, I use that as a basis for a 'proper' post.
" Let me help clarify and improve that message for sharing with subscribers. Here's a suggested rewording:
"Quick update: I've discovered how to better organize our content. I plan to use threads to create connected series of posts that build on previous topics. Would you find this helpful? This way, related discussions stay neatly linked together."
This revision:
- Leads with the key point
- Explains the benefit clearly
- Invites subscriber feedback
- Uses more engaging language
- Maintains a conversational tone
Would you like me to suggest alternative versions or expand on how to effectively use threads for content organization?"
Yes, seems like the ball is in your court to tailor who sees what info, and to protect your most precious content for paid up subscribers. I just looked it up.

I haven't worked this out yet!

Or... just do a regular post and make the subtitle, "Comments Requested," or similar.
I've been asked to sign in. Here?

Entirely depends whether one is Substacking for profit or for political purpose.
Not qualified!
