Thanks for the article, Kristina! I have been feeling kind of resigned lately; earning pennies a day from Medium is not fun.

I don't even bother mentioning my earnings on social media anymore because they are laughable.

The news about Medium acquiring these other platforms is enocouraging. Thank you for letting us know that they are reducing the number of articles that get curated. I had been wondering what the hell it took, but if fewer articles are being curated overall, then yes, it will mean more to me if I ever do get something curated here.
