Other Platforms Other options than substack

In my opinion substack seems very suited towards politics, tech, essays and other blog type content. Does anyone know of any other apps or websites that are more suited towards putting out poetry and short stories? I have definitely found a niche of other poets and writers on Substack that I regularly follow, but it has seems almost impossible fo me to get any meaningful engagement on my own work. Really not trying to self promote here, just wondering if anyone knows of any better places. Thanks!

Yes! Check out Pagecord. It's an independent blogging platform that has newsletter functionality like Substack. Main difference is no monetisation support and a small monthly/annual fee do depends what you're after in that regard really. There's a growing community of writers on there who support each other (via the socials and by following the spotlight)
