I switched the other way - Buttondown to Substack. I did this in theory for growth, because I thought Substack may provide some better discoverability.

It did not and I regret the move!

You didn't move to substack you mean? And how do you know if it was regretful?

I think they moved to substack but did not receive the promised growth/discoverability, thus they regret the move.

Sorry, that was a bit of a word salad. I was using Buttondown and moved across to Substack, thinking it may increase list growth - but it did not make any difference.

Also, I miss the markdown editor on Buttondown…
