Interesting question for you - how would monetizing here be different than monetizing on Patreon? I'm assuming the freedom to have more tiers? Though Substack offers that as well. Is it that Patreon takes less of a percentage than Substack?
I'm asking for two reasons - 1 ) I have a substack newsletter myself. Granted, it's a small footprint, but not insignificant. 2 ) Adding more platforms isn't always the answer, though it may seem like it could be - so I'm often looking at the cost of investment (time, money, my sanity) when I add another platform to the ones I'm already managing.
I haven't looked at Patreon vs Substack. Though if you have a large Patreon following already, I can understand why you would go with that platform, it makes sense.
One of the reasons I chose Substack over Patreon was that I could eventually monetize it if I wanted to. Patreon seems a bit more confusing and not as user friendly -though I do use it to support various creators.
No worries if you don't want to discuss via comments. And it's absolutely your choice. I've enjoyed the newsletter here and hope it continues. You have a right to monetize your work and it has value and should exist.

I don’t want to give money to Substack, it’s that simple.
