Mackenzie,

I would love to hear more about your experiences with Medium and Substack sometime. I'm new, so quite a bit of this piece is written from a place of some naivete.

I do think that there's a core to it that I'm going to keep in the future, though, which is that much of what we think is an algorithm is actually the result of how people on the platform behave.

I'm keenly interested in figuring out how this platform works, so if you would like to watch as I try, it would be great to hear more of your comments in future articles. My writing wouldn't really be helping anyone if I'm not learning from other people's individual experiences with the platform.

Also, I'm hoping to start in on Substack in the very near future. I've got the account already and it's a matter of just starting things up, probably in the next week or so. I'll look you up!
