You summarized the situation with key points, Lawson. I agree with your experience and observations fully. I also read Liberty's story which was an eye-opener. Comments on hers and on my Medium story and Substack newsletter show that no authentic writer is happy right now therefore Medium needs to address it urgently before losing good writers. When they leave only spammers will remain here and Medium will lose 1 million hard earned paying members. We authentic writers brought those members, not the Medium platform itself. Without good content, nobody will pay to this platform as anyone can find information through Google.
