Elizabeth Tai | 戴秀铃 🇲🇾<p>Currently indulging myself by reading about the enshittification of Substack lol.<br>It's sad, but predictable, how if you bring social media dynamics to a once-cosy platform of writers, things go to hell.<br>A well-known writer I follow who has 39k followers wrote about how things have drastically changed the last few months. Journalists, celebrities are now dominating the platform and small fry writers are no longer seen. </p><p>For me, I've seen an uptick of outrage content and reply guys and debate bros. It's sad how the moment one writes a narrative that the mob doesn't agree with, they pile on you.</p><p>This is the opposite of what Substack stood for in the past.</p><p>I will still use Substack, because I'm a practical person nor do I choose platforms based on its morality or ideals, but how it serves me. But it's sad because I remember how it was before the bigwigs tried to change it to the next Twitter.</p><p>However, this is a very good reminder for me to double, triple down on my website and remember NOT to "build a presence" and do more digital sharecropping than necessary on Substack.</p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/SocialMedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SocialMedia</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Substack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Substack</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Indieweb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Indieweb</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Internet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Internet</span></a></p>

Elizabeth Tai | 戴秀铃 🇲🇾<p>When you look at your social media and blog feeds, ask yourself: Does it spark joy?</p><p>In this post I discuss my plan to aggressively implement digital minimalism to my blog and newsletter feeds. Also - Substack Notes is far too toxic. It's distracting me from writing valuable things and funelling it to creating content for Notes. In essence, making me a digital sharecropper for this VC-backed company.</p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Substack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Substack</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/SocialMedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SocialMedia</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Blogging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Blogging</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Reading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Reading</span></a></p><p><a href="http://elizabethtai.com/2025/08/10/digital-decluttering-marie-kondo-ing-the-content-i-consume/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://</span><span class="ellipsis">elizabethtai.com/2025/08/10/di</span><span class="invisible">gital-decluttering-marie-kondo-ing-the-content-i-consume/</span></a></p>

Elizabeth Tai | 戴秀铃 🇲🇾<p>Okay, I deleted the <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Substack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Substack</span></a> app from my phone and tablet. I have to admit that I have no control. I have zero control stopping myself from looking at the FYP feed. I have zero control at being annoyed by hot takes. And I definitely have zero control sometimes at typing back at these hot takes. So for the safety of everybody, including myself, I have deleted the apps and I hope it'll be permanent.</p><p>I still remember the day I signed up for Substack. This was way before Notes was a thing, way before they thought they could turn their newsletter delivery platform into social media. I knew that <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/enshittification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>enshittification</span></a> was on its way, but I'm a practical girl - I prefer to think of them as tools rather than platforms that need to be ideologically aligned with me.</p><p>But god, you know, the amount of toxicity that has increased thanks to Notes is appalling. I'm trying to remember how people used to discover each other. I think we discovered each other through organic recommendations. I often found people through Substack's community posts where people just hung out and talked. I miss those forums. I used to click on people who sounded interesting and, well, sane.</p><p>But now with these social media dynamics, you get exposed to people you don't want to get exposed to. And your content gets exposed to people you don't want to get exposed to. Before Notes, discovery was a little bit safer and more controlled. Your newsletter was often recommended by like-minded people or people who shared your interests. I don't think discovery via social media dynamics is a healthy thing. You get all kinds of people, and many of them do not discuss or interact with you in good faith.<br>I think I have been two pampered by Mastodon. 😅 I am no longer used to normie social media.</p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/socialmedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>socialmedia</span></a></p>

DrWeb<p><strong>Seeing Things – Trump’s Autocrat Check List – Liza Donnelly</strong></p><p>&nbsp;Trump’s Autocrat Check List</p><p><strong>It’s long<a href="https://substack.com/@lizadonnelly" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a></strong></p><p>By <a href="https://substack.com/@lizadonnelly" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Liza Donnelly</a>, Aug 06, 2025</p><p>I realise the above drawing only touches on what he is doing. Voting rights, immigration abuses and Esptein nonsense are the main stories in my reading today.</p><p>Texas Democrats who left the state to block a vote on redistricting voter maps<a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/aug/06/greg-abbott-lawsuit-texas-democrats-redistricting" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"> say they received bomb threats</a> at their hotel in Illinois where they are sequestering. <em>“This is what happens when Republican state leaders publicly call for us to be ‘hunted down’. Texas Democrats won’t be intimidated,” </em>John Bucy III, who represents Austin district, said. Govenor Abbott filed an emergency petition <a href="https://gov.texas.gov/uploads/files/press/In_re_Abbott_Petition_%28FINAL%29_-_Filed.pdf" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">asking the state supreme court</a> to remove Wu, the top Democrat in the state house of representatives, and declare his seat vacant. Legal experts say this tactic is a long shot. I am so proud of the Texas Dems.</p><p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/aug/06/greg-abbott-lawsuit-texas-democrats-redistricting" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Other states appear to be following Texas’s lead </a>and considering mid-cycle redistricting . Ohio, Indiana and Missouri Republicans are exploring their options to try to gain more GOP seats by redrawing their voting maps. Democratic govenors are also exploring options, but it appears they don’t have the power to draw as many seats as the Republicans do. California, with 52 seats in congress, may be the best bet. <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/05/us/politics/california-texas-redistricting-maps.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Governor Gavin Newsom</a> is “reportedly moving ahead with a referendum this fall to ask to adopt a new map that would add Democratic seats and override an independent redistricting commission.”</p><p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/aug/06/physical-sexual-abuse-pregnant-women-children-immigration-centers" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Senator John Osssof’s office reported hundreds</a> of reported cases of human rights abuses in US immigration detention centers. <a href="https://www.ossoff.senate.gov/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/250721_Pregnancy_Report_v7.pdf" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Here is the report.</a> The alleged reports include: deaths in custody, physical and sexual abuse of detainees, mistreatment of pregnant women and children, inadequate medical care, overcrowding and unsanitary living conditions, inadequate food and water, exposure to extreme temperatures, denial of access to attorneys, and child separation. This is not who we are.</p><p>in news of the Epstein files, apparently, JD Vance is holding a meeting at his home with senior officials to strategize on how to handle the Epstein Scandal. At the top of their list is whether or not to release the transcripts of justice department representative (and former Trump personal attorney) Blanche’s recent interviews with Ghislaine Maxwell. After the interview, Maxwell, who is serving time for trafficing girls, was transferred to a lower security, a nicer prison. Outrageous. The justice department <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c79l38vl3lwo" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">subpoenaed a number of high profile people</a> to interview them for more information about Epstein, among them Bill and Hillary Clinton. While it is public knowledge that they knew Epstein, so did Trump. Yet Trump was not subpoenaed. This is a tactic to stall and to try to show Trump’s MAGA base that he is doing something about the scandal. Everything but releasing the files, which he can do, but won’t.</p><p>At least 60% of Americans disapprove of Trump’s handling of the Epstein case.</p><p>That’s all today for me. Hope you have a good Wednesday, what’s left of it.
