I use substack thinkingthrough.substack.com

I have hosted many in the past. Self hosted, wordpress, and a php version (I forgot what it was called)

The biggest problem with all those was dealing in spam comments and bad cross links.

Then I tried medium but it didn’t use to share subscriber emails.

Ended up migrating to Substack and been very happy with it for past 3 years
