Filip and I got an amazing live yesterday talking about collaboration on Substack, Notes best practices, using AI and so much more.
We kicked off with an exciting announcement: Smarter Substack, the brand new co-created publication curating the 3 best Substack reads every day. It’s a minimalist newsletter, one that meets a great community hub, starting small, but with big plans - watch the video to find out what’s coming.
Oh, and make sure you subscribe to Smarter Substack, it’s free:
In this live we also covered:
New trends on Substack
Collaborations > going solo
Build in public: how it works and why
AI as a tool, or as a ghostwriter - the real debate
Notes growth strategy that actually works (even if you’re not viral)
Plus: What we wish Substack would build: pinnable chat threads, “mark as unread,” voice messages in chat, and gated landing pages for free subscribers (not just paid).
AND we also discovered a brand new feature Substack just released: we can now share screens during lives on a desktop! How cool is that! I’m re-considering my whole live strategy now, stay tuned!
