Mehmet, I read your moving article with a sense of sadness and disappointment on one hand, but joy and excitement on the other. I'm looking forward to transitioning from Medium to Substack for all of the reasons which you so genuinely articulated.

In short, Medium's loss is Substack's gain. See you there soon when I transition my newly launched LinkedIn newsletter on U.S. politics and the presidency to Substack for greater reach and results. Thanks for all you do to empower writers to reach new heights on multiple platforms. All of your exemplary editorial efforts and accomplishments are most appreciated by this community.

On a personal note, I'm always so grateful for all of your meaningful help and guidance.
