Her website is a website though

https://www.web3isgoinggreat.com/

The blog software she uses allows sending newsletters

Said newsletters are recaps

I agree that 99.9% of newsletters are just spam, but in this very specific instance she’s discussing the pricing of using publishing/newsletter services vs self hosting. Pretty much no spammer will go through the effort of self hosting

We want Spammers to stick with Substack, then.

Thinking about it, e-mails are useful for downloading and reading later, if one isn't consistently connected to the internet. The main reason I stopped with e-mail newsletters is that, eventually, most only gave previews of the content with links back to the website.

Same reason I don't use e-billing - the actual bill is basically NEVER in the e-mail in any useful form.
