Re: reading in newsletter (email) format. Very happy you will keep this around. Having a great website is hugely important but I also love that I get your stuff in my inbox and can easily read it there when time allows.

Great news! As a Defector subscriber as well, here’s hoping a point comes where the whole band can get back together!

I've liked Substack's set up, and I am a subscriber to Defector (and am enjoying their site too), so a win either way. Glad things are going so well!

This is excellent, exciting news!

The only snag for me personally is that I think Substack's commenting system both looks and works better than Alley's (Defector.) That said, I subscribe for all you wonderful writers; the community is just the sweet, sweet gravy on top. I'm so glad this is all working out!!

Great news. I'll read you wherever you are, but I have to admit I find your current home a bit bland. Looking forward to something a bit more eye-catching.

This is very good and I'm happy for you all. I friggin love Defector, and I hope that there's a path where the two sites support each others' work and build up your subscriber base. You know, like how it used to be only without moneyed overlords ruining everything.
