Hi Haimish, Thank you for writing this meaningful and powerful piece. Your open letter truly reflects the voices of thousands of writers. I acknowledge the communication gaps that have been present, and I have escalated these concerns to Medium's senior leadership. Recently, a caring leader approached me privately to gather my honest and transparent perspectives, and we started a constructive dialogue. I am confident that some immediate issues will be addressed soon. I also understand Medium's challenges, as they are vulnerable to abuse and misuse by spammers, scammers, and opportunistic writers who focus solely on monetary gain rather than providing meaningful content to the community. As an open platform, it is difficult for Medium to combat these persistent issues without community involvement. My volunteer editorial team contributes significantly to this effort by identifying and reporting such offenders in a timely manner. I have conveyed to Medium that we are their allies in this ongoing battle, and it is crucial that these dedicated volunteers are recognized and supported in their efforts. I will provide an update on the progress soon. I appreciate your ongoing contributions.
