Everything in this earthly life is temporal, even platforms.

It has been a good time writing and sharing content on Medium. It has been an opportunity to share content with all of you.

We believe the terms and conditions of Medium and its Medium Partner Program have been growling unfair for the authors, giving more arbitrary power to the hosting platform. Their changes in their payment calculations are overly arbitrary and prone to impair writing quality.

Will you release new articles here?

No, we will not delete any previous content. However, we are no longer posting over here.

Where can I still follow you?

In our website www.epidence.com and other social media platforms as well as over substack.

Are we deleting our account?

No, you can still read our older content on Medium.

To be 100% transparent with you, soon, by Medium terms and conditions, we will stop being monetized (since we stopped our Medium membership). This means we will stop being part of the Medium Partner Program and that all possible profit from your reading time and interactions will go to the Medium platform.
