Matthew Yglesias's venture into Substack proved fruitful, grossing about $1.4 million annually, highlighting the potential for writers to profit independently.
Taylor Lorenz's transition from major media outlets to starting her own Substack, User Mag, showcases how creators can monetize their expertise in niche areas.
Leaving established media for independent platforms like Substack, as demonstrated by Yglesias and Lorenz, signals a significant shift in journalism careers and financial viability.
Yglesias's growth from 9,800 to nearly 18,000 subscribers in a few years illustrates the power of personal branding and the changing landscape of media.
