On August 1st, 2023, Medium CEO Tony Stubblebine published an article that changed my vision’s trajectory and lit my obsession on fire. The newest partner program changes struck a nerve because, finally, African writers will earn passive income from their articles on Medium.

Indeed, the MPP is not the only way to earn from your writing and leverage Medium. But if we’re honest, it is one of the few ways to earn effortlessly from writing and publishing valuable content on Medium.

But not all writers can earn from the MPP. We can’t because our countries are ineligible, and stripe is unavailable in our countries.

It is frustrating for writers who can’t leverage this wholesome avenue and the minute they notice what’s up after creating their accounts; they quit the platform for good.
