I fear I'm The Minimalist Caveman, this seems to be confirmed by my wife who frequently warns me not to use clingfilm "caveman style" when I get it tangled up.

This is a wonderful takedown. In my opinion, though (notice, not IMHO but written out), Substack is such a great relief from traditional social media that I am willing to love all its various subcultures as you have so perfectly outlined them. Thanks!

Okay I’m still week one and fit none of these! I’m just a writer with wild stories of surviving crazy things.

But I still find this brilliantly refreshing so on to part two!

I "almost" feel attacked? Maybe fit into #6 but try to focus on the news most people are ignoring and from the perspective that the corporate media DEFINITELY doesn't want you to hear about.

Great piece, was reading tepidly read specifically to find out which cringe category I fit into.

I like to call these the Sales Writer.

Wrote on another platform about how to be successful. Changed their course to remove the name of the last platform to add Substack and are now claiming to be an expert.

They normally come with a bunch of deluded followers who would subscribe if they were publishing a shopping list because they believe being connected to said Sales writer will make them famous.

Thanks for the lesson. I should be a Substack god in a few months, and a multi-millionaire

This was hilarious, I've been here only 3 months, what does that make me? I'd like a God tier tag ;)
