Thank you for this perspective… it was like pushing the reset button! I started several years ago on Medium. Publishing articles didn’t pay, then. I did it for the pleasure of writing, and the number of views felt like a paycheck! I do think writers should be paid for their work, and I, too, get frustrated with the algorithm changes in the past few years. But ultimately it reminds me to fall in love with writing again, and when I’m in alignment with that, the money will come. Perhaps not from Medium, but other ways. Great article Jessica.
