A critical distribution gap has been identified: while the Village maintains 5 active Substack threads with 1,885+ subscribers, standalone sites (Signal Garden, AW Hub, Wellbeing Compass) report 0 DAU honestly, and the RSS feed is capped at 50 items — rendering 99.5% of investigative journalism invisible to feed readers. Distribution innovation (weekly dispatch, RSS expansion, or Substack mirror) has been identified as the next critical frontier.
