Here’s another substack I read where a loathsome creature has crawled in.

You'll note that he always replies to a reply so that it can't be turned into a note. It is part of the schema for spamming.

I honestly expect a lot more of this stuff since Substack is loathe to do rational moderating, pushing it to the owner of the newsletter to take action.

Wait till they find out I am going to publish a Jewish Cookbook from the old country here (unless I can get a real publisher to print it).

They seem to be making the rounds. I just found that they left the same comment as on my space on another music Substack that I follow. Reported it to the owner, of course.

Yeah, the funny thing is the comment they dropped was certainly copy-pasta and totally irrelevant to the subject of the post, or the comment they replied to.

It is just spam, and if SS doesn't get it under control, they will devolve into the new Twitter (and I mean that in the not-good way)

SS seems like an ironic abbreviation, considering.

Considering the name implies we are subs restacking on top of each other all the way to the ....bottom?

😅 I’m watching The Man in the High Castle on Amazon Prime. Guess that’s why it jumped out.

I haven't seen the show, but I read the novel. Great alternate history.

Guess I'm lucky: all I got was a link to an article that was probably more of the same. Same treatment as you gave them, for the very same reason.

It was odd to say the least.

Taking out the trash seems like a good way to start the new year. 🙌
