Hey Medium, Please Talk! Waiting (Not So Patiently) for the Medium Partner Program Launch in India!
Hope For India, Brazil and Thailand
Hello fellow writers, readers and the Medium Staff
Let me take you all through my morning schedule, especially in this exciting year of 2024. Each day my first ritual after waking up involves going over to the Medium Blog and checking the Product News section.
What am I looking for, you ask? Any news about the much-anticipated launch of the Medium Partner Program (MPP) in India this year? And the recurring disappointment hits when I find, once again, that there’s still no update.
The frustration is hard to put into words as Indian writers like myself have been left in suspense for the past 5 months.
Do you all remember the anticipation we had surrounding the grand launch of the Medium Partner Program (MPP) in India, Brazil, and Thailand on August 1st? Well, we had to hold our excitement a little longer because it got postponed by 2 months.
And then with hopeful hearts, we marked our calendars for October 1st.
But on October 24, Buster Benson shared the news that the MPP launch in India was facing further delays.
This is what Medium had to say regarding the launch —
I get it, they didn’t promise exact dates, and they said early 2024, but what’s bugging me is that they are not keeping us informed.
My question is simple: How challenging is it to give us writers an update ?
Even if Medium can’t provide a set date, a blog post updating us on the progress or a reply to the numerous comments seeking information would mean a lot.
It’s all about bridging the gap between anticipation and transparency. We’re just looking for a little insight into the journey and a sprinkle of assurance that our wait is not in vain.
Let’s hope that they are launching it in January or early February 2024
As we continue this journey of anticipation, eagerly awaiting updates on the MPP launch in India, let’s stay connected, fellow writers.
Here’s to hoping for a swift update that turns our frustration into celebration. Until then, keep the creativity flowing and the words weaving. Cheers to the stories yet to be told and the exciting chapters waiting to unfold!
