Love this feature. I’m a new writer here, and have wanted to use the chat feature to figure out what topics would resonate with my small reader community, but there was a friction of it just working on the app. Looking forward to using and engaging with this now! Thank you Substack team.

Curious whether this means some readers just haven’t taken to the app?

This sounds great! I’m not a writer but would welcome a chat it two! Curious question..today I got a drop down message from Substack saying something about sticking to a thread and not posting spam??? Huh??? Anybody else?

This is great! I have some ideas of doing a journaling mini course for writers and creatives. Could do the daily discussion of in chat threads!

I love this, I'm new here and still learning how to use this app

But I came across some interesting writers here

I even liked an Arabic one and recommended it if you read Arabic you can check it out and see what I'm talking about

I’m confused. As a Substack author, can I now start a Chat with my free subscribers on the web app? I was planning to try that out, but then I think I saw a message saying this feature was no longer available (or something).

Love the feature and have implemented it today with my subscribers. Is there any way to sort the threads so that the newest replies can be seen? As of right now it seems we have to scroll to the newest replies. Thank you.

Love that you all keep pushing the envelope! These chat spaces are so important to bringing a greater depth to conversations around our writing and how it intersects with their lives. Cheers!

I'm so excited for this!

That's a nice feature. But as long as we are talking "the app" can you explain why the iOs version doesn't allow you to edit your comments if you see a typo?
