Thanks for this, Jonathan. I spend a lot more time reading on Medium than writing/publishing, and I’ve noticed a wide variance in the quality level of stories (both across the platform, and within individual writers' works). I agree with you that many folks are publishing too much. That’s incentivized on Medium by both the lack of quality control (except within certain publications), and the potential to make money. Each day that I spend time reading others' pieces, engaging with writers, and honing my own pieces for eventual publication, I wonder if it’s worth it. I came a bit late to the party (April 2018), and I ask myself, is Medium already “over”?
