This bug caused my Substack to fracture when I used a different email to login while already logged in. All of my notes were carried over to the “new” Substack and all of my articles were still in my old Substack. I ended up deleting the new one and losing all of my Notes when I figured out what had happened.
Of course there was no help from Substack.
Here’s how it happened, and I’m using a post from
that was posted today, to show the bug is STILL happening.Notification of a new article from The Starfire Codes is in the notifications.
You can see that I am subscribed.
Clicked on the notification and I’m carried to an article page where it shows I am no longer logged in or subscribed.
What is it going to take for Substack to finally fix this bug???
I remember one time years ago when we were getting all comments from everyone who commented on the same thread, instead of only responses to your comment. HAHAHA!
I've been having troubles for a couple of weeks, maybe a month. Some comments to me ever show a notification. I also cannot edit my profile. It says "there was an error." Then, nothing.
Support is as horrible as always, as far as I'm concerned.
They let you change your email. I've been theorizing that Substack is selling a feature that puts people you don't even subscribe to in everyone's notifications. People who I've never heard of or sub'd to show up in my notifications. They wouldn't let me integrate my old stack with this one or change the email address on my old account even though they could see it was a formerly used email address and were shown proof of it.
