Twitter disables links to Substack because Substack launched Notes

  • Free as in speech, $8 as in beer

    Technically you can still post Substack links, but they can't be liked, retweeted, or replied to.

  • > I’m obviously staying at Substack, and will be moving to Substack Notes next week.

    definite Musk footgun moment.

  • So Twitter starts "disabling" URL forwarding links to Substack months ago.

    And Substack announced Notes ... three days ago.

    Did Matt miss something?

  • It is indeed. I had not even heard of notes until Space Karen disabled substack links. I imagine I am not alone.
