Mostly Python's referral program is now active

Hi everyone,

As some of you may know, Substack began implementing a referral program earlier this summer. I didn’t enable the program right away, because I wanted to see how it worked before doing so. I’m happy to help people share my work, but I don’t ever want to come across as spammy or overly self-promotional.

At this point there’s already a lot of meaningful content on Mostly Python, and you might want to share what’s here with other programmers you know. The referral program is pretty simple, so I enabled it today. From this point forward if you share the overall newsletter, or any individual post, you’ll get a few perks:

• If you refer 3 people who end up subscribing, you’ll get a month of paid access.
• If you refer 5 people, you’ll get 3 months of paid access.
• If you refer 25 people, you’ll get a year of paid access.

If you’re already a paying subscriber, your subscription will be extended by the appropriate amount.

You can click any Share or Refer a friend link you see, and your referral will count toward these complimentary subscriptions. If you’ve referred a few people and don’t see a message about a complimentary subscription, please reply to any email you receive from Mostly Python, and I’ll help you get it sorted.

I really enjoy writing about my work with Python, and what I’ve learned about the language and the community. I don’t like gamification and turning growth into a competition. If you know someone who would benefit from this newsletter, please share a post or the newsletter itself. If you have questions about the overall Substack referral program, see their FAQ.

Thank you for helping get the word out about Mostly Python!

Thanks,

Eric
