There is value is certain sorts of meta stories--I read yours all the time. What I was talking about earlier are the sort of low effort/low value ones from people who were either: A) trying to sell people on something or B) Churning them out at high volume hoping each would earn a little bit. Those stories were inescapable for awhile, and made for a poor UX. I think a lot of people left the platform during that time. Can't speak for everyone, but my feed seems pretty clear of those these days.
Hi Kevin, really? You read mine all the time? I think with Medium's new updates you often have the feeling only a few are checking in ^^ although I had some (non-Boosted) stories lately that performed really well in terms of views.
Nice that you're checking out my Medium stories.
I used to write much more about Medium's ecosystem but woth YouTube, Substack and co I only have limited time to write there but love to help others.
