I am not the person for this, but I'd like someone to build a Substack competitor using Ghost that (and here's the important bit) includes discoverability & promotion for their authors. I doubt it’ll ever be a billion dollar business, but you could peel a good chunk of Substack's business away by offering similar value and tools at a marginally lower price without Substack's shitty values.
