Last week, I imported my substack subscribers to @paragraph, but now I'm wondering how it works to import the posts as well? @colin, you mentioned that there are some UI changes coming: 1) If I import all of my substack articles from the last 2 years, do they get slotted chronologically into my paragraph feed? 2) Will I have control over the layout in the future?

Yes to both. Let us know any feedback on migrating any posts! Also love hearing feedback on using Paragraph, so don't hesitate to reach out as you get ramped up.

awesome! thanks so much 😊 my thought is that I want to import my previous writing, but I have some more paragraph/farcaster specific articles on paragraph, so I don't want them to get lost in the 60+ other posts I bring in will give it a go and let you know! re: feedback, I've been writing on paragraph since february and really love the options for token-gating, minting, and distribution. One piece of feedback would be to provide better statistics/metrics for the articles. right now, I can only see open rate/views and monetization. On substack, I had wayyy more data on who was clicking on what, how they found the articles, where they opened them, etc.

Totally get it, we definitely want to improve analytics on Paragraph over time — appreciate the note. Keep any other feedback coming. It's hugely helpful. 🙏

no problem! another thought: better customization on the thumbnails. I was originally making gifs to add animated elements to my paragraph, but that has been removed in the forced cover image. I feel like a big part of newsletters is the unique branding, so the auto coverart is just okay imo. same with the forced 2:1 ratio, most art is generated in 16:9 if in landscape, so i'm having to crop strangely not huge issues, but ones i've been noticing consistently https://paragraph.xyz/@wanderloots.eth

my pleasure 😊 two more thoughts: 1) I was creating "free mints" on zora for each paragraph post, and charging higher amount for a paragraph collection. Could be perhaps interesting to have an option for zora integration. E.g., publish newsletter --> triggers automatic zora post with the thumbnail and link to the paragraph post. trying to think on how to go as cross-platform as possible, while bringing people back to paragraph to read the long form 2) it would be cool to have a paragraph mini-app, where you could click on the in-feed post and the mini-app would pop up as a "reader". Rather than dealing with frame by frame clicking, we could have a scrollable long form article that actually gives people a chance to read the long-form writing in the format it was intended
