There were a few days at the end of January/beginning of Feb when I thought things were rebounding a little. But the past few days have been brutal again. I dipped my toes into substack but I really don't want to jump ship. Like you, I love it here as well. It is a platform that works for me, but I don't like being towed along, then dropped with no explanation. Boosted stories are making a pitance and it is hard to motivate oneself to write for that. Time will tell, I suppose.
