Don't ever feel you have to apologize for not sending the newsletter out "late". This is volunteer charity work on your part. You owe no one anything. That aside, your comment about having some sort of chat room intrigued me. I thought I would share my thoughts on this with you, fwiw.
Easiest option is to use the chat functionality built in to Substack. (I personally hate it, as I don't always get notifications on posts there, and it's just one more place to go read stuff.)
Second easiest would be to post them on X.com and make it so that only people mentioned in the post can reply, so you don't get overwhelmed with follow up questions.
Last idea, which could be of interest if you ever wanted to do a Discord room, is set up a Discord room. It can have just one channel where you are the only person that can post. So it's basically read-only. Use it for any intraday updates. If you wanted to throw your readers a bone, you could make a second unmoderated open chat channel where we could chat amongst ourselves. You don't want to get sucked into the administrative side of having a Discord unless you are getting paid for it and or have someone to help moderate it.
Your newsletter has been invaluable in my day trading. The educational content is wonderful. I am eagerly waiting for your private chat room. I think invite-only Telegram (https://telegram.org/) channel will serve the purpose beautifully for real-time alerts/messages.
The idea with chat or room is great, I hope something will be realized. Maybe, as someone already mentioned in the comments, Discord would be the best option...

Telegram is another great idea and quicker as well
Thank you! What about Substack chat?
I haven't explored it yet, but it might be an option when I need to act quickly.
Thank you Smashie...
Don't know where you are in the world - but I do hope you are somewhere enjoying the weather and staying healthy!
