I sometimes go on Substack’s publication “on Substack”, and I think they wrote about it awhile ago. I go through it to see what new stuff they are doing.
I didn't know about the voices (off to change it now!) I am also curious about the live video, but would feel more comfortable doing it with someone as a casual chat (lol *hint, hint* if you ever wanted a partner in crime for that).
Thanks, Mika! I had discovered some of these things, but really appreciate this information the way you laid it out in a practical way. Thanks for all you do for this Substack world, Mika.
Mika, I didn't know about any of these! There's a whole world of strategies and tips I clearly know nothing about haha. Thank you so much for sharing 🙏🏼✨
Love the feature where you can explore what's trending around the world, had no idea it existed! I stumbled upon the voice customisation randomly, otherwise it'd also be news to me now 😄
And while I'm familiar with some of the features' existence, I really appreciate you guiding us on how to use them 😊
I knew about the text to speech tool and often use it if I am trying to catch up on others' posts while pottering around, but had no idea it was customisable per publication. Thank you!
I'll look out for the upgrade where they introduce a Welsh accent ;)
I know that Substack says it sends out a renewal email for paid subscriptions ahead of time BUT I never received one and other people have told me that they didn’t either. All I/they received was a notice thanking us for renewing after the money was taken. I think this is very poor but don’t know what to do about it.
I heard of one guy who was undoing all his paid subscriptions because of this lack of notice. Can't blame him. I had two subscriptions which I had forgotten were due and was just told they had been renewed. It IS an issue, but perhaps not with everyone every time.
Wow. I didn’t know about most of the features, except for filtering through the Notes section. I really want to try live but feel like I don’t have the courage to do it yet.
It’s wonderful how I get to know about this platform a little more each day!
Oh I didn't know about the country feature. When I try it on the app it only gives me the top publications in NZ. Maybe it shows more of them via the web browser? I'd love to see a list of all our NZ buddies on here.
Love the option to default to the inbox instead of notes!
It’s been a game changer!
Oh interesting to see the top 10 NZ writers 😀 Thanks for that Mika. How do you find that page without your link?

Oh my gosh me too! I totally ran and changed it!
And count me in to be your Live buddy. 👌

You’re so welcome! I’m glad it was helpful xx
These tips are so helpful! I had no idea all of these features were available.
I'm so glad that they wee useful! That makes me so happy. 😊

A Welsh accent would be sooo good! 👌
The read-aloud voice is a great accessibility tool!
It really is! 👌
This is so useful! Thank you, Mika! ✨
Hi Pili! I’m so glad it was helpful. ☺️
Substack is always coming out with new, fun tools, so I love passing it on when I find out about them.
Thanks so much for stopping by. I love the name of your publication! I’ve started following you. ☺️
I didn't realize you could customize expiry emails! Lots of great tid-bits in this post! Thanks Mika!
You are so welcome! I’m glad it was helpful!
Wow, every day really is a learning day. Thank you for sharing these. I especially love the text to speech option.
I was really surprised by the text to speech option, so I’m glad I was able to let others know about it
It’s a great feature. So pleased you found and shared it.

I wonder if it’s a new thing or if I’ve missed previous emails, but I got a renewal email recently and that’s when I looked into it.
I think you’re right, it’s good to give people a heads up before money is taken from their account.

I feel the same way about Lives!

Unfortunately, it only shows the top publications 😔
Shame! Although interesting to see the top ones.
I have noticed the going live feature but all the others are news to me. Great info! Thanks 🙏
Yay! I’m glad it was helpful!
