Dear followers!
It's been almost 4 years of the Architecture Weekly newsletter powered by this Ghost installation. Half a year ago I decided to experiment with the Substack: a platform designed specifically for newsletters. The results were astonishing.
Currently we sit at 1,637 followers, of which roughly 75% are active:
However, any statistics should be taken with a grain of salt: I really doubt the Ghost tracking feature works correctly.
At the same time the statistics on Substack shows that in the matter of less than a year it managed to overcome the followers number obtained here in 3+ years:
Given Substack is free by itself plus handles mail sending and hosting I made a decision. I will be migrating the blog entirely there.
During the next two weeks I will make necessary technical migrations. If you would like to continue receiving Architecture Weekly and other blog posts of myself, please subscribe there:
https://softwarearchitectureweekly.substack.com/
If you don't take any action, I will migrate the user base anywhere. If you are not willing to receive the newsletter anymore, feel free to unsubscribe once the list is migrated.
I am grateful to every single one of you for reading the newsetter, commenting on the posts, sharing the blog and attending my courses. Here starts a new chapter in Architecture Weekly - thanks to you!
Best Regards,
Vladimir
