Balance
A newsletter for Indie Hackers to design your life.
Balance is why I wanted to become an entrepreneur.
And losing balance, the main reason why I quit.
I hated to have people telling me what to do, or worse, what not to do.
I am still learning how to use Reddit to promote and share my writing.
But I was able to go from 100 to 200 subscribers with a couple of posts using Reddit.
This was the effect:

I think it is possible to find readers to subscribe to your newsletter. But you also have to be extra careful not to do it only to get subscribers and provide some value.
After that, I sent my second newsletter, and people stayed. That's good.
I'll share deeper learnings after I understand how to do it better.
Any other ideas to find readers? Still exploring.
I started Balance 15 days ago because of a viral article I wrote.
Getting to 200 subscribers is a massive achievement for me. I'm starting to think that this may become something real for me.
People are giving me amazing positive feedback. That feels too good.
