My finger has been hovering over the "cancel membership" button on Medium all month. This may make the decision easier. If I can't get read, there is little point in staying there. Especially when I can't see the people I follow, either. And no, I'm not upgrading to FOM. Nope.

I hit the cancel button! With my middle finger.

Or to say it in Michelle's words: All of us who take our writing seriously have probably experienced the deep disappointment of putting significant work into a piece we believe deserves a Boost and gets decent engagement but makes very little money

Oh the entitiy bar. Robin also emphasized in our interview she'd love to get it back (if she were the next CEO ^^). Sorry to hear that you're thinking about calling it quits. Besides BOOST there's also organic reach within the built in audience on Medium. Definetly better as on your own blog where you only hear crickets but of course it really sucks if you take a lot of sweat and heart into a story and you only get a handful views... Is there another platform (besides Substack) you're thinking of writing in 2024?
