Michael: Many thanks for sharing this important information with the Medium community, which is most appreciated. A few thoughts…

First, human curators/editors beat vexing algorithms 24/7 IMHO as a writer.

Second, kudos on keeping Medium an ad-free zone where any writer has the opportunity for major visibility — and pay — for their creative efforts.

And, lastly, long live Medium!

Wishing you, Ev Williams, Siobhan O’Connor and the Medium Staff all the best and much continued success.
