Curious about whether medium blocks you from mentioning or linking your service here. It seems you have a huge following there, but a hard time moving them over here.

I have that challenge as well. Over 60k followers on a financial site but they prohibit discussing other websites or linking things we wrote on other websites.

The point I should make is that, up until I got shadow-banned, I enjoyed my time on Medium. I met people like you who were slaving away in the word mines like I was who needed the cash, and who were much more expressive about the platform's flaws than I could ever be. I certainly would not have met a fair number of the people I met there without it, not even my fellow Canadians.

I only wish it paid without tying it to Internet metrics I don't understand, and it didn't force people to overproduce there to earn more. That's the main warning I have for any new people coming in there.
