Substack CEO 'frustrated' over Twitter's reaction on new feature

Substack has recently announced the launch of a new feature called Notes which is similar to Twitter.

The reaction of the micro-blogging site to this similarity has gained the limelight as Twitter responded to the launch by blocking the ability of users to like or retweet any posts containing the word "Substack". 

Users can not search the word Substack for the same reason.

Additionally, if a user clicks any Substack link, Twitter displays a message saying, "The link you are trying to access has been identified by Twitter or our partners as being potentially spammy or unsafe."

Responding to this situation, Twitter CEO Elon Musk has denied the attempts to block any Substack links or searches.

"Substack was trying to download a massive portion of the Twitter database to bootstrap their Twitter clone, so their IP address is obviously untrusted," he said. 

Substack CEO Chris Best replied to Musk by saying that they are open to addressing any issues that Twitter might have regarding compliance with the terms of service of API.

Moreover, Best wrote that he is "frustrated" with the whole situation as it has affected individual small Business owners more than the platform company.
