More spam, also reported to the ICO

I got banned after just a few days of joining, and there was no clear explanation for it. I have faced a bunch of false accusations claiming I was using an AI bot to comment. It's honestly the worst social media platform I've ever dealt with.

I set up a Substack account called @jolowephotography I wrote three articles on the recovery of Melanoma Cancer. I was beginning to get the confidence to get subscribers. Someone blocked me. I can see my profile. I can read my articles. But I can’t move forward with my Substack. I am not impressed. The time and effort required to write well was not worth it.

Just saw a clip of Jim Acosta interviewing an Ai creation of a dead young man from 2018. Obviously, it was manipulated to promote Lefty views. It is horrible, because no one can follow-up with questions of the dead young man. Substack should block Acosta who constantly accosts us. Duh!

Set up my account, and wrote a substack post. Its a page designed to help people save money through codes and earn cashback called The Code Queen, but it got suspended (probably through their AI robot) for spam and phishing. I've appealed, but heard nothing yet. How awful that they treat people with such disdain. They would not exist without writers.

I am being harassed and spammed with unauthorized newsletters from an N-TV editor ( Verena Maria Dittrich ). After contacting N-TV, she registered my email address for her newsletter on Substack for her personal blog ( verenamariadittrich.substack.com ) with criminal intent! Substack has already been informed, but has shown no reaction to this criminal behavior by its bloggers!

Nightmare company. We moved our business newsletter subscription service to Substack after hearing about it. Unfortunately, none of our paid or free subscribers were receiving our welcome emails (with their promised lead magnets). When we finally managed to get to an actual customer service human, they admitted the problem was on their end, and their engineers would have to look at it. It's been weeks, and they're still saying they can't give us a timeline and to be patient. Um...patient? For weeks? We pay for ads to drive traffic to our newsletter - meaning weeks of ad money has been wasted because none of those new subscribers can get access. Sorry, but Substack customer service is a trainwreck. And for the amount of cash they make off each paid subscription, you'd think they'd be able to hire a few more tech "engineers."
