Is Medium a Reading or A Writing Platform?
made with Canva

First and foremost, I’m a writer on this wonderful and inspiring platform Medium.com.

I love to live my purposeful passion here and… write, write, write.

Thanks to Medium, I made writing a habit and celebrate my small micro wins every single day for almost two years now.

I’m lucky to be part of this community.

But is it a writing or a reading platform?

Whenever someone asks me I say it’s a writer platform but since Tony Stubblebine became Medium’s new CEO Medium is talking a lot about how to make the readers happy.

Apparently, most users join Medium as avid readers. They love to learn new things written by indie writers like you and me. They are looking for…

  • fresh ideas
  • actionable advice
  • inspirational stories
  • engaging content.

So is Medium a reading platform at its core?
