Definitely relatable! I wound up turning off unsubscribe alerts; it stung and was tripping me up.

But more importantly, congrats on getting to 100! It feels good, no? I'm glad to be one of those. :)

Thanks, Kevin! I know you're secretive of your subscriber count, but I'm sure it's close to 1000 :-)

You needn't confirm or deny ;-)

Excellent advice here, Nikhil. Embracing the churn is important because it certainly will happen. People come and go. It’s easy to wonder what you did or didn’t say that caused them to go, but driving yourself crazy over it is a waste of time and energy. Best to go with the flow. Besides, oftentimes they come back!
