I just found this substack (and great photo) while looking for a formatting resource for the substack platform. I already got a ton of tips from the 25 Rules -- and . . . is there any kind of support thread for tech glitches like "how do I change font size when the Customize your site button doesn't work? Thanks!

Hi Stephanie, glad you like the post. For tech questions the chat bot in the dashboard is usually quite good.

Font size cannot be changed manually, because Substack changes it automatically according to the reader’s screen size. Use heading formats to make individual sentences larger.

This is so helpful. But how do you change the heading formats?

To change the heading style/format, first be in the post editing window, then select a paragraph of text. Then find 'Styles' on the formatting toolbar, and choose a style from the drop down list.
