Good perspective, Josh. There was always a gatekeeper. With infinite content fighting for finite attention, there has to be. All that's changed is that now it's an invisible robot, and I'm here in hope of limiting its power too.

Building direct relationships with real people is the antidote. It's never been more important. That's why I'm showing up here, trying to grow something organically from the ground up. I think the effort is worth it.

Exactly right. I think we're going to see a kind of renaissance of live events soon, for the same reason. Substack is structured in such a way to be as close to that as you can get.
