I've seen this dilemma so much all over medium from writers who struggle with it too. I don't know if I'm particularly interested in solving it, or what solving it even means:

It's basically the balance between the writer on the log cabin in the woods that never publishes, and the guy with the 24 articles a day with clickbaity listacles and tops on everything.

What I've learned is that depending on what you want (audience or your purest work) you have to negotiate one thing or the other on your writing. And this is probably what we start doing when we accept writing in a language or platform in particular.

“If you are doing it for them, you’ll be fine. If you are doing it for you, that could be problematic, at a certain point. Because they’ll know it, they’ll feel it, and they won’t like it” — Jerry Seinfeld.
