This all sounds highly likely, but it is also a very US/English centric perspective. I'm from Denmark, a country of less than 6 million people. It is not possible for anyone to monetize a single substack account in Danish, let alone push other talent via such channels. The same is true for all other content areas and I would assume that it also holds for any other small language. I wonder how big the total addressable base of speakers of a particular language needs to be for it to be able to sustainably carry infrastructures like the ones you describe here.

I know it was written (somewhat) tongue-in-cheek, but the "doom and gloom" articles are not depressing -- quite the opposite. Yours are trenchant analyses of disruption and, for many of us, disruption is optimistic because that's where rebirth is, where opportunities and innovation sit.
