Your old logo was iconic. To me it represented the simplicity of Medium amongst a crowded field of writing platforms. That bold serif M looked like an old school printed M — like you wanted to get back to basics.

It wasn’t about features and blog plugins and all that. Medium was the writing platform that wiped everything away and gave you a clean black and white page with no noise and just said… write.
