           | English also has "queue" (like a line of people or a certain
           | hairstyle) but "que" generally means somebody is speaking
           | Spanish.
           | 
           | Anyway, I hope that some future generations manage to figure
           | out systems or incentives that avoid or delay that kind of
           | mission decay.

         | Would it be better if substack has two forms of the same
         | article? Like have the full article available only for paid
         | members while having another one for someone just checking it
         | out. Leave it to the author to decide what to show in a
         | particular view.
         | 
         | Substack can restrict the size or types of content available in
         | the free view of the article to reduce their server usage. I
         | feel like this way the eventual enshittification could be
         | delayed or even avoided. Of course this way might not be the
         | best for getting YoY growth. And I'm not sure if any website
         | provides such a provision

         | Nice - thank you! Very informative post as well -- I love
         | topology and this looks like a god-send!
