\n\nEvery now and then, I like to share the love by focusing on a blog I have found and enjoyed. Today I’d like to share Jukka’s blog.
Jukka is a business geek from Helsinki, Finland. Long-time readers will know I love reading the blogs of my fellow geeks. For my focus in this introduction/review, I will explore two posts about email lists. They date back to June 2024. (Like me, Jukka is a sporadic releaser of blog posts).
Two side notes: (1) This is a long-form exploration (Fediverse readers, you might want to come blogside for this one); and (2) I keep using the colloquialism of eating your lunch, which means that someone or something pushed you out of the way like a school bully and soaked up all your customer pool: They ate your lunch.
Why start a newsletter instead of writing a blog?
I feel I need to explain myself a bit here on this “legacy” blog – considering a few people have also asked me directly about it. “Why a newsletter?” I’ll provide my reasons and thought process here, with the intention of possibly sparking also comments from fellow bloggers and blog readers on this shift I see around me.
Why start a newsletter instead of writing a blog, Jukka Niiranen blog, June 26, 2024
In this post, Jukka talks about why they started an email list. True fans will know why this got my attention. Depending on where you read my stuff, you might be aware that I hate email. (I am not alone in that).
Back in 2021, I complained that I blog so much I’ve got nothing left to send to a list. Since then, I started a list (join it here), and I have never once sent anything to the list. Maybe one day I will. Maybe it will be epic. You’d have to join to find out.
So, yeah, I was curious why anyone would want to run an email list. (Platform building notwithstanding).
Well, for starters, email is a direct subscription, whereas RSS is underused and social media is driven by AI and algorithms.
The web is certainly no longer the same as back in 2005 – yet few things in the world are. First the rise of social media came along and pretty much killed the traditional way of following blogs via RSS feeds and Google Reader (RIP). It doesn’t matter that RSS as a protocol is still perfectly valid today. Most people who might be interested in what I or the rest of the #MSBizApps community write about will not be using RSS. I have personally pretty much given up on following the hundreds of RSS feeds that I had subscribed to in my Feedly account.
Why start a newsletter instead of writing a blog, Jukka Niiranen blog, June 26, 2024
Jukka opens with some strong arguments for using older and more reliable technology in a time when big business seems to have mangled and enshitified the value of some of the newer stuff.
That was true in ’24 and even more true almost exactly two years later in ’26.
My problem is that email was enshitified for me a long time ago. All these domains I own, all the email addresses I have generated. They get spammed to high heaven by spammers; they get spammed into the ground by any service I signed up for; not one address leaves me even a little bit happy to see an email. I could sign up for an email list, but I’d never read the emails, assuming I see them at all before they scroll off page one due to noise from elsewhere.
That said, I know other people sometimes love getting emails. I wish I knew why or how I could enjoy them, too.
I can’t argue with Jukka’s solid reasoning. The tech bros are currently ruining things for all of us.
AI, (un)social media, and the doom scroll make it very hard to reach people who want to find your stuff. Don’t get me started on how Google went from the blogger’s friend to a hungry AI eating our lunch.
The effort of reading my RSS feed – I set up an entire web server for me to subscribe to RSS and then promptly forgot it. My reason, I think, is that RSS with the app I was using felt too much like email. And we all know how I feel about email.
Are you writing blog posts or AI training data?
After the social media algorithms came the LLM wave.
Why start a newsletter instead of writing a blog, Jukka Niiranen blog, June 26, 2024
Sadly, yes, my blog is probably AI training data. I still insist that we should insert carrots where they don’t belong, but that’s a side project here.
He is not wrong that we bloggers get a lot less from our public content than we once did. I’m not entirely sure that is a reason to give up, but it is a reason to feel a lot less joy about blogging.
I once wrote at great length about author platform building. The group of topics that was SEO, content outreach, and blogging – that was my passion. I loved the subject. I still do. Even though the companies with massive tech budgets cancelled it.
I refuse to go down without a fight. I still run a forum for writers and readers. It consumes RSS to put headlines into a feed managed only by subscription. Those good RSS feeds are getting harder to find.
I am of the opinion that we can mourn the passing of the social web, or we can return to a world of smaller and more intimate connections. A community, if you will. That thing social media was supposed to be, but very quickly wasn’t.
AI is going to scrape, burn energy and push the price of GPUs sky high, but if or when that bubble bursts (I lean towards if it does rather than when it does), the community will remain. It might not be enough to sell books, courses, or services, but it might be enough to form actual relationships – something AI can not yet hope to meaningfully replace (illusions of connection notwithstanding).
Email is the new black
This brings us to the title of this post. While some pre-social and pre-AI internet technologies like RSS have faded into the background, email has remained undefeated. No matter how many alternative messaging and collaboration platforms have come & gone, nothing has managed to disrupt email in a meaningful way. Although kids today may not be paying much attention to email, the further along they go on their professional career, the more futile it is to resist the power of this universal messaging protocol and (unfortunately) identity system that has been around since 1971.
Why start a newsletter instead of writing a blog, Jukka Niiranen blog, June 26, 2024
Deep breath.
Just because you are right, Jukka, doesn’t mean I have to like it.
The thing we call email continues to exist because it is simple, flexible, and foundational. We all have to use email. Fight it all you want (and I will), but everyone has email. It just works.
Email is like cheese; it goes with everything.
I like cheese, though.
I’ve not done Jukka’s first post justice; partly because it is a good post and I skimmed over a lot of details, but also because I don’t want to spoil the read for you. You should definitely go and read it yourself. There will be links at the end if you want to read the rest of this post first.
7 months of Perspectives – start of Jukka’s newsletter journey
In this post, Jukka reflects on running a newsletter and how that journey has been to that point. For an email-hating heathen like me, this was gold in terms of just what a good newsletter can do for you. Maybe even answering my question – what do I do with this now?
At that point, in March 2024, I did not yet know what exactly I was going to build.
7 months of Perspectives – start of my newsletter journey, Jukka Niiranen blog, November 29, 2024
Reading that Jukka started off blind was refreshing. I’ve read so many articles that seem to suggest the email artist just started and immediately became the top-grossing startup in their niche without ever looking back. Yes, those writers, I get that you love email and think I should have a list, but you never told me about the getting-started process. Your survivor bias helps me not at all.
So, yes, I was already on board with reading this follow-up retrospective.
Writing is great
After taking a break, I quickly discovered that I still have a burning passion for writing. I just needed the right place and format for it.
7 months of Perspectives – start of my newsletter journey, Jukka Niiranen blog, November 29, 2024
If I had a diary, I’d accuse Jukka of reading it. I, too, love writing. My spelling might bring you the occasional howler (AI that predates LLMs has helped massively with my spelling and punctuation), but I never stopped loving writing. The many blogs and websites I have created are testimony to how finding the right space can really get you going with the old expression with words thing.
Unlike my jump to ActivityPub and Mastodon, Jukka found a post-twitter home on LinkedIn. More power to you if you can figure that site out. Honestly, LinkedIn is like another planet to me.
Jukka explores how, for him, writing for a list enabled him to think deeper about topics and follow the rabbit hole wherever it goes. I think that’s what posting on this blog does for me. I don’t write here very often, and most of my archives are still AWOL, but when I do post, I go deep.
Social media is not on your team
Social media companies are not your friends, though.
7 months of Perspectives – start of my newsletter journey, Jukka Niiranen blog, November 29, 2024
Social media is, at best, like a pretty decent party. You go there to meet new friends and dance a little, but the real magic happens when you invite them to your home. This is why you should own a website and control all of its content. Home can be an email list if you really insist, or a blog or a forum… Home can be anything where the new follower can join you.
For authors, I still recommend a website with a blog, but your mileage may vary. Jukka, for example, seems to have enjoyed running an email list.
Newsletters, on the other hand, are about forming the direct connection between the publisher and the subscriber. Algorithms won’t determine who sees what – the humans on both ends get to choose that. I think it’s a much healthier basis for communication, rather than relying on the gamification mechanisms in social networks that can change on a whim.
7 months of Perspectives – start of my newsletter journey, Jukka Niiranen blog, November 29, 2024
We are back to Jukka being right, even if I don’t like it.
The fact is, email is a human on each end (mostly). Not entirely, though. My experience with email has been a lot of bots and automation on the sending end, with more scripts on my end filtering some of that back out.
The principle is sound – email can and should be human on both ends. Same as ActivityPub and Mastodon, I think.
AI is eating our lunch
If you used to have a business that relied on people discovering your site via “how to” queries on Google, that model is becoming less and less viable every day.
7 months of Perspectives – start of my newsletter journey, Jukka Niiranen blog, November 29, 2024
A theme from Jukka’s first post – AI are still eating our lunch. Those easy-to-write “how-to” articles that were once the bread and butter of content marketing are now just AI fuel with little traffic.
The landscape has changed. We must change with it.
Case in point, this post. You have probably noticed that there is very little advice and knowledge on display here. Instead, I’m sharing with you a blow-by-blow as I enjoy someone’s blogging. In the very early days, this was what blogging did. Then came the make money fast types and changed that. AI then showed up and ate that layer for breakfast. What is left is what blogging always has been. Web logging: Sharing things person to person.
It is at this point of the reading and sharing that I started to see clearly the way forward for blogging. Not as a content marketing platform – that ship has sailed – but as a persistent network agnostic social media node powered by humans and human connection. You know, the very thing IndieWeb has been getting at this entire time.
Is AI eating Google’s lunch, too?
I have already mostly abandoned Google. However. I did not replace it with AI, but rather a search engine that I pay for with money – not with my data and privacy. Kagi has been an awesome experience that not only meets my everyday search needs; they also sent me a beautiful yellow T-shirt! I’ve learned that an ad-free search engine that doesn’t try to actively deceive me into clicking sponsored links is still highly useful in the year 2024.
7 months of Perspectives – start of my newsletter journey, Jukka Niiranen blog, November 29, 2024
This thought from Jukka took me down a longish sidebar so that I never got to note that semicolons are cool.
I wonder if, despite Google’s detour into AI, that selfsame AI might also be eating their lunch, too.
Thinking about it, Google is enshitificating at an advanced pace. It was once the place to get good search results. Now it is just where our browsers send us if we are too lazy to pick something better. My directory might not be that somewhere better yet, but there are plenty of places that are.
I have to admit that I love the sound of Kagi. Yes, Kagi is a paid thing. Yes, you can get search for free. No, that’s not always a good thing. Their “if you don’t use it, we don’t charge you” for model appeals very much.
Perhaps this is a massive own-goal for Google. They were so focused on keeping up with the AI tech-bros and controlling all the attention and information that they opened up a market gap for their replacement. After all, that’s how the likes of Yahoo gave way to Google to begin with.
Which is why I wonder if Google is letting AI eat their lunch, too.
Is WordPress right for you?
When all you’ve got is a WP hammer, every problem looks like a blog post nail. While being a versatile and broadly used platform means there is a huge community around it to give tips, build plugins and sort of keep all your options open – you are still thinking within that WP box. You keep publishing openly available blog posts as web pages, like you’ve done for 16 years already. You can’t just stop doing what you’ve always done, right?
7 months of Perspectives – start of my newsletter journey, Jukka Niiranen blog, November 29, 2024
Once more, Jukka lands a powerful argument for doing things differently. Since I moved to WordPress (a far from painless switch, as evidenced by my missing archives), many problems suddenly seem to have WordPress-shaped solutions.
This is an argument for mailing lists. I did not start liking email during my reading so far. For me, email sucks. Why is every problem met with an email-shaped solution?
I’m being a little unfair. I think Jukka and I have very different usage needs. For me, email is not the right shape; for Jukka, it seems to be working.
Maybe – I start to wonder – the LLM as the solution to everything is a third example of everything is a nail when you have a hammer. The truth is, as Google may learn too late, not all information needs are AI-shaped. I can tell you that finding blogs I want to read has gotten harder with the advent of Google turning everything into LLM slop.
I, for one, have blog discovery needs that Google cannot meet. In some cases, OpenMentions (another project of mine) might be one tool for discovery, but it is not likely to be the only one.
Whatever makes you want to write is good
Jukka talks about how that feeling of direct connection with account-walled content and an email list feels better and makes him want to write. There’s an engineering saying that if it is stupid but it works, then it wasn’t stupid. There’s a writer’s saying that whatever gets you writing is the right thing to get you writing.
For me, I think the ActivityPub and WebMention thing is what has made me enjoy writing on blogs again. I get feedback from real people. Sometimes I just see an avatar under the reblogged and liked headings. Sometimes I get a comment or a conversation. The thing is, I get evidence that humans saw my stuff. AI cannot do that for me.
This is, I feel, the strongest demarcation between what works for Jukka and what works for me. I leaned into openness and human connection as a fundamental principle, and Jukka leaned into closed and human connection. Two geeks; two solutions. Who would have guessed?
My weird sarcasm aside, I have been studying Jukka’s two posts very carefully for my own education. An education that AI (being the mean average of the web) cannot give me when it comes to figuring out my mailing list and writing motivations. Google is too busy trying to keep me on site, and ChatGPT is too busy trying to stroke my ego. What I really need is the most human thing of all – raw and honest reflection. Jukka gives me that for which I am super grateful, if my long commentary on two blog posts was not evidence enough.
Are paid subscriptions the future?
What the paid version of Perspectives Plus offers is a commitment from me to the subscribers. Rather than merely using these publishing platforms as my own strange form of public therapy, I will now aim to deliver something worth paying for.
7 months of Perspectives – start of my newsletter journey, Jukka Niiranen blog, November 29, 2024
In his first post, Jukka told us about future plans. In just seven months, he had figured out writing newsletters and had a paid tier. Nice going.
It makes me wonder if paid subscriptions are the future. If you like what your favourate content creators offer, a small subscription keeps you in the loop and the valued content out of the LLMs.
Do I like that vision of the future?
Yes and no.
Yes, because it sounds like getting paid, and we all would like that. No, because it sounds a lot like paywalling, and I’m no fan of paywalls.
Perhaps there is a middle ground where most of the stuff is free, but the goods come early to the backers. That seems to be the Nebula model for many YouTubers. I think I might be okay with that.
Would a hybrid paywall work for me? I am not sure. My content production is sporadic at best, and my content is spread all over the place on a per-niche-topic basis. I can get behind it ethically. If I can write consistently enough to offer value… Who knows what the future may be?
I can say that I don’t think a paid and free hybrid site would be a WordPress-shaped solution. Maybe a hand-coded thing. Hand-coded means I wrote it, but it can also mean it takes me aeons to get production-ready. I am an easily distracted squirrel, after all.
I’ll take questions and comments now
This is the point where I shambolically waffle towards something like a call to action and sign off. My eyes refuse to do any more reading right now, so any funkey bits will get edited later.
You can reply to me via your blog/static-website/etc. (with a WebMention ping), via an ActivityPub reply, with a local comment. I’m taking questions, comments, objections, corrections, and grand ideas. Talk to me – I’m mostly writing for the interactions. I will try to reply to everyone (eventually).
If chatting is not for you, a like, boost, or reblog, or share would be nice too. Let me know you came, you saw, and you stayed to the end. Weird carrot references optional.
Over to you…
