Thank you, Karen! I’ve noticed a lot of strange subscribers in the past few days. My count goes up and then goes down. I know Substack is trying to keep them out. I feel safer now because of you!

One tiny extra step: I have all my Substack subscribes and unsubscribes synch to my email marketing platform (I use Kit, formerly ConvertKit). How? I have email notifications turned on for Substack, and then I use Zapier to connect Substack with my Email Management System via Google Mail. Then I don’t need to remember to export subscriber list periodically- it’s all synched all the time. And there are things I can do in Kit I can’t do in Substack…like email journeys…so it’s actually beneficial to have the list in both places. Then, so that I don’t get all those subscribe/unsubscribe notifications from Substack as they happen, I have a filter on gmail that has those email bypass my inbox and go straight to archive. Zap still runs, but I don’t get emails in my inbox.
