I Discovered the Real Reason People Are Leaving Medium

Apparently, the reason is… me. My stories are driving people away from Medium.

That’s a comment I got on a recent story. To be fair, not only my stories were mentioned. Stories like yours was the precise wording.

You know, I’m a chill dude. I usually don’t engage in beefs. I don’t argue in the comments. I try to discuss. I have no problem with critique. But I think this one is a little exaggerated. Discriminating even.

In fact, I think the opposite is true. Right now, stories about Medium are a major factor in driving new writers to this platform. Whether this is good or bad is another discussion.

I bet some people are annoyed by stories about Medium. Nothing wrong with that. It’s not the reason people are leaving though. That real reason is decreasing views and earnings.
