I’ve been enjoying newsletters more than ever. This old-school form of communication has made a comeback, probably in response to the way Facebook controls the content you see. With a newsletter, there’s no middleman filtering out the content.
Well, sure - that’s why people in the 90s were eager to escape the CompuServe/Prodigy/GEnie walled-ghettos for the open internet and actually having their own websites. The optimist in me struggles to understand why so many people seek out such middlemen and re-create them in today’s “social media” companies.
