#SubstackBlocked

Twitter blocks Substack links, escalating platform competition.

Origin & Impact

In April 2023, Twitter suppressed Substack links after the newsletter platform launched Notes, a Twitter-like feature. Substack URLs were blocked from being liked or retweeted. The heavy-handed move drew backlash as anti-competitive, and Twitter reversed course within days. The episode exemplified Musk’s impulsive governance and willingness to punish perceived competitors.
