Welcome to a new chapter in our nostalgic journey! Retrothusiast has made the exciting move to Substack, offering you easier access to content, a vibrant community space, and new ways to connect with fellow retro enthusiasts.
Why the Move to Substack?
As your guide through the world of all things retro, I'm always on the lookout for ways to enhance your experience. Substack has emerged as the perfect platform to take Retrothusiast to the next level. Here's why I'm thrilled about this transition:
Streamlined Content Creation and Sharing
Substack provides a user-friendly interface that allows me to focus more on what matters most – creating engaging, nostalgic content for you. The writing process is smoother than ever, which means I can dedicate more time to researching and crafting the retro stories and videos you love.
Direct-to-Inbox Delivery
One of the best features of Substack is its email integration. Now, every new post can be delivered directly to your inbox. This means you'll never miss an update, whether it's a deep dive into '80s pop culture or a retrospective on classic video games.

Increased Discoverability
By joining the Substack community, Retrothusiast becomes more discoverable to other nostalgia enthusiasts. This increased visibility helps our community grow, bringing in fresh perspectives and shared memories from retro lovers around the globe.
Substack App
Another reason I chose to move Retrothusiast to Substack is because of the incredible convenience and functionality of the Substack app. The app makes it easy for you to stay connected with all the content, updates, and discussions happening in our community, right from your mobile device.
With the Substack app, you can read new posts, join in on the conversation, and never miss an update—all in one place. It brings a seamless experience that enhances how you interact with our content, allowing you to dive deeper into the world of retro music gear and synthesizers whenever and wherever you like.
So, if you haven’t already, download the Substack app to stay up-to-date with all things Retrothusiast. It's just another way we're making it easier for you to be part of our growing community!
What This Means for You
Going forward, all Retrothusiast content will be published here on Substack. This centralized location ensures you have easy access to every article, video, and discussion.
Plus, I am migrating all of our old articles and videos over from other platforms so you can enjoy them all here.
Join the Conversation with Substack Chat
One of the most exciting features Substack offers is the Chat function. As a subscriber, you'll have access to this community space where you can:
Share your own retro memories and experiences
Discuss recent posts and suggest topics for future content
Connect with other Retrothusiasts who share your passion for the past
Ask questions and get insights from fellow community members
This feature turns Retrothusiast from a one-way content platform into a vibrant, interactive community of retro enthusiasts.
Supporting Retrothusiast
Your support means the world to me and helps keep Retrothusiast going strong. Substack makes it easy to show your support in a way that suits you best:
Free Subscription
You can subscribe to Retrothusiast for free, ensuring you never miss a post and have access to the community features.
Paid Subscription Options
For those who want to provide additional support, Substack offers paid subscription tiers. These subscriptions help fund the research, writing, and community-building efforts that go into Retrothusiast.
A Note to Patreon Supporters
If you're currently supporting Retrothusiast on Patreon, thank you so much for your ongoing commitment! You have two options moving forward:
Continue your support on Patreon
Switch to a paid Substack subscription
Please note that Substack and Patreon don't integrate, so any future paid-only content on Substack would require a Substack subscription to access.
The Future of Retrothusiast Content
My goal is to keep Retrothusiast accessible to all lovers of nostalgia and retro culture. With that in mind:
The majority of content will remain free for everyone
Occasional exclusive content may be offered to paid subscribers as a special thank you
The focus will always be on creating high-quality, engaging content that celebrates our shared love for all things retro
What's Next?
With this move to Substack, I'm more excited than ever about the future of Retrothusiast. You can look forward to:
More in-depth articles on retro topics
Interactive discussions in the Substack Chat
Potential for audio and video content in the future
Collaborations with other retro enthusiasts and experts
