Incomes are nose-diving, yet many of us are increasing our reads here.

Image from my Medium account

Earnings are nose-diving for writers here. Who is responsible?

According to the image above, readers that I read all of their power of words, engage, and clap are visiting my page and not reading mine. Medium earnings are an essential income for many writers here, including me. I can pay a few bills monthly, but not anymore, at the rate things are going.

Is the algothrim telling me the truth?

Image from my stats.

Medium said we earn from the Medium writers who read our power of words. Earning down means what the stats say. I am reading your power of words to the end, and you are viewing mine. I add to your income, and you don’t to mine.

Many honest and hardworking writers are experiencing this. The writers whose earnings we add to don’t bother to return what they get.
