Medium Shouldn’t Promote Remi Just for Gaining 168K Followers in 3 Months
Has Medium lost it or what?
In a recent post, Medium staff Zulie interviewed a writer who gained 168k followers in just 3 months. Yes, you’ve read it correctly.
168k followers in just 3 months!
Too huge a number to believe.
The person behind the profile is a 18-year old girl named Remylyn Tornilla, known as Remi from Philippines. She discovered Medium through TikTok and started loving this platform as she felt a “sense of belonging among the writers here.”
Here’s a few of her recent articles with the number of engagements:
- to be loved is to be known — 36k claps, 200 comments
- you don’t have to be sorry for leaving and growing up — 32k claps, 218 comments
- i say the words i wish to hear — 52k claps, 422 comments
- but i want to live, not just survive — 43k claps, 360 comments
Now tell me, don’t you think something is fishy here?
How on earth a newcomer enters this platform (where brilliant writers struggle) and wins the lottery one after another with her silly articles. Not to mention, most of her writings — as AI detector suggests — are generated by AI.
