Not a bad option, but what are the potential advantages over using the Pages feature of Misskey forks, or simply Wordpress?

Substack itself didn't even present a correct UI to me on mobile so I never bothered with it when it was initially popularized. Still seems to have the issue, too.

One advantage over wordpress is that it avoids bringing its parent company, Automatic, into the Fediverse.

From Wikipedia:

In February 2024, Automattic announced that it would begin selling user data from Tumblr and WordPress to Midjourney and OpenAI.

I mean with fediverse stuff there is no need to buy the data, you can just take it with no limitation

You're not wrong in all likelihood, but Mastodon and Misskey and their forks all have a thingy to send an opt out of AI scraping request.

Yeah, i would hope they respect that but for some reason i doubt that.
