          1. .@Revue is probably one of my biggest disappointment as a newsletter writer The product itself isn’t bad but some major features are ridiculously absent (for instance, it’s not possible to turn a paid issue into a free issue) and their acquisition by Twitter added almost nothing

          Sure, there is now a better integration between Revue and Twitter — but so what? Image quality is horrendous, there is no way to change the metadata of published issues, there is no support for basic SEO and social network sharing HTML tags, you can’t add an “About” page

        There are also no preview for paid posts (which is flat out bad for conversion rates), paid issues are even not readable online (only by email, which is a really bad user experience for new paid subscribers) And despite all of this, they still take a 5% cut

      It’s not the first time I complain of Revue and to be honest, I should have paid more attention to the writing on the wall Their founder @mdekuijper reached out to me after I complained the last time but I never got any follow up They probably don’t care @simardcasanova/1476670305636597767

    I already moved almost all of my newsletters out of @Revue — to Ghost Ghost is not perfect, far from it, but it’s a better product than Revue I will probably move my remaining and biggest newsletter out of Revue as well, including the paid members, in the near future

      I really dislike Substack but I give them that they offer an easy to use and decently powerful platform for online writers @Revue, by comparaison, is clearly behind. And I’m really wondering if Twitter really invested in Revue. From an user pov, it doesn’t seem so.

        Oh and I forgot: if you want to launch a newsletter, you should probably avoid @Revue Go with Substack or maybe Ghost if you have the technical skills
