Having looked into it more, I gather that after subscribing, you’re presented with the list of other substacks that I recommend, and a highlighted option to subscribe to them (selected by default). It’s bad form on substack’s part that the button to decline (“maybe later”) is not so prominent, so you may be led to accidentally over-subscribe to other newsletters. Sorry about that!
(Though it’s easy enough to unsubscribe at any time, at least.)
Thanks, yeah I think this was an error on my part rather than anything to do with you. I should have looked more carefully, thought I skipped past the recommendations but the default option of subscribing caught me off guard. This is a shame because I’m now more hesitant about recommending other substacks on my own site.
