The message at the bottom sounds like pretty shitty move.

Message at the bottom sounds like someone trying to distance themselves from reddit and Twitter. It's an excellent move that I support completely. It's free, the content gets delivered to you directly upon it being uploaded, and a newsletter doesn't want any extra data out of you other than an email address to send your letters to.

Also the comics will probably end up posted here anyway, since it doesn't ask you not to repost them, so why does it matter?

Why not just post the comics on the website like every other comic author does. Even this comic is normally posted on the workchronicles.com website, but for some reason, the author added this to the website:

📣 ANNOUNCING

NEWSLETTER NOVEMBER!

For the entire month of November, the comics will be posted only on my Email Newsletter.

Join now. It’s free!

Stopping posting on website and posting only in newsletter, which many people including me find extremely annoying and not the right tool for the job, can't be excused by distancing from twitter or reddit.
