The “claps” and the wave of confusion they’ve been creating. Love your article! I feel both angry and upset with myself for acting greedy after the “clapping thing” came up. I’d jump happily at the sight of a new “heart” but now I find myself counting “claps” and just feels wrong. +1 heart made me feel appreciated and suddenly +1 clap gives me mixed feelings. Quantity should not be our goal. However, I’ll count on Medium for standing ovation sounds and, at least, GIFs. :P
