I am funding the OSF( SOROS SOCIETY FOUNDATIONS) to oppose the authoritarian regime of Trump, JD Vance, Mike Johnson, Elon Musk, Marco Rubio, the Republican Party, MAGA, the illegitimate Supreme Court, pro-Trump billionaire groups, Big Tech (NVIDIA, Amazon, Apple, Meta, Google, Microsoft, Palantir, OpenAI, X.com), and authoritarian governments around the world. I urge family members, friends, and people on the internet to vote for the Democratic Party in the 2026 midterm elections and the 2028 presidential election. If this effort fails, the United States will become an authoritarian regime like North Korea and Russia. Democracy, human rights, freedom, fairness, and justice will disappear from America forever. The price of democracy—paid through the sacrifices, struggles, and contributions of countless generations of Americans since the nation’s founding—will be erased and will no longer exist on Earth. All of this is caused by Trump and the Republican Party, pro-Trump billionaires, Big Tech, and the MAGA Supreme Court, who want to destroy the achievements created by our forefathers. It is heartbreaking that the American people and people around the world face the risk of becoming enslaved, chained, and exploited, forced to live forever in darkness with no way out. Be brave and stand up against them. First, please like and share my article on all social media and internet platforms so that we can connect with one another and strengthen this struggle against them together.

I appreciate how you broke this down, Yana. I have been running a four Notes per day strategy for a few months now and the patterns you surfaced here match what I have seen in my own data. Emotional clarity, sharp hooks, concise delivery, and timing all matter more than most people realize.

Your breakdown on high engagement emotion work is especially useful. I shifted toward more intentional framing around my audience’s real struggles and the results have been noticeable. Higher reach. More meaningful engagement. A steady rise in free and paid subscribers.

I also like how you called out the value of community presence. That aligns with what has helped me the most lately. Notes are not just output. They are a social ecosystem.

I’m continuing to refine my own note playbook on Collaborate With Mark and your analysis gives me a few ideas to test next. Thanks for putting real data behind what many of us feel intuitively.

Thank you so much, Mark, I'm so happy it worked for you too. That's exactly how we need to use data and analyses like this one - adapt to our own needs, and it delivers.

These are some great notes, especially the pain points. my growth on Substack has been incredibly slow. I’m afraid it’s much harder for some of us to find our communities
