We have an important update for our newsletter readers: The Daily Dot is moving to Substack. You’ll still receive your daily digest of internet culture news, and we’ll continue publishing stories on the main Daily Dot website. The only change is that the email format will look a little different—but the content will remain the same: the internet stories and links you know and love. One major advantage of this move is that Substack lets us connect with you directly.
