You always write great stuff and I have seen so many other highly followed writers complain about the same exact thing recently. I just started writing on this platform last spring and immediately got all the bonuses and thought this is some nice pocket change but sometime in the middle of the summer things cratered and views collapsed. I stopped writing articles and now mainly read. It wasn't worth it anymore. You have a large following and if you left Medium for another platform, many would follow. I am looking for somewhere else to write but nothing really is as easy as Medium, unfortunately.
