@Daojoan Yes, this! This is why I stopped writing on Medium and started focusing on my own blog, on my own domain. Email is also my preferred way of communication. Email, however, could probably benefit from a more modernised protocol.

I can't confirm this, but I do get a sense people are "moving back" to their own spaces on the web. Perhaps I'm wrong. But I actually much rather read and follow your blog on your domain than follow you on a big platform.
