I love that this conversation is happening, and that it is happening out in public. Thank you for that, and for continuing to seek ways to make great content available, in ways that reward/compensate writers.
I like the experiment. I think it’s a great start that the claps from subscribers are the ones that are counted. I’d caution (as I’m guessing you’ve all considered) against the potential gaming of the system, though. How will Medium account for a writer’s friends/network artificially inflating the clap response?
