Revisiting Medium: Opportunities and Challenges for Writers
Written on
The Current State of Medium
Medium remains an attractive platform for bloggers and content creators, primarily due to its competitive compensation for authors. With recent updates from the technical team and new leadership, the platform is actively enhancing its offerings to better serve the writing community.
Despite concerns, Medium continues to provide fair compensation for its writers. Those who have left may not fully understand the payout structures of other platforms or where they could find success outside of Medium. Many former writers may have departed because they became accustomed to higher earnings, but the door to return remains open.
In the literary world, collaboration, not competition, is key. Some writers share their work based solely on their own perceptions of success, which can be frustrating for others in the community.

The Loss of Beloved Narratives
It's disheartening to witness the disappearance of stories from some of my favorite authors. While I aspire to establish a legacy akin to a century-old company, I find myself in a country not included in the MPP program, despite running a business supported by it.
A Note to My Readers
I sincerely hope that writers whose accounts have been terminated will take the time to review my work.
