thank you!! that’s great to know, I haven’t reached out to them yet and this is a great incentive to do that

the team at Ghost were SUPER helpful in the process, i moved over about a year ago and they were responsive, helpful, and made the move way less of a headache than it could have been. if you run into problems while you're working on it, just send me a mesage and i'll try and help if i can

buttondown allows you to migrate subscriptions while pausing paid subscriptions on buttondown too -- although it's probably not as smooth, it was relatively painless!

this makes it so there's no need to re-up subscriptions, etc. it all just transfers over, and then you basically just sever the connection to substack once you're settled in a new spot. It takes a bit of doing, but there's tech teams at other platforms that can help

just want to +1 this, I paid for a year of Ghost up front to have them completely handle migrating over everything (content + subscribers) and the process was very easy (and there were actual human beings to email for help) and once they were done, all I had to do was disconnect Stripe from Substack
