I am also continuing to write on Medium despite the embarrassing earnings and disrespect. I downgraded my subscription so I don't feel ripped off anymore. I have noticed that even though my engagement has decreased significantly, I am still gaining free substack subscriptions from Medium accounts. I think you are right! The more places we write, the better the chance of being seen by people who enjoy our writing. I've decided to write all my health articles here and the everyday stuff that's going on in my life at Medium. Maybe we will get lucky and things will dramatically change for the better over there soon. Who knows. Only time will tell. Great article!

Right now, on Medium, I'm only writing Drabbles, which never make much money.

However, I'm not being paid anyway so I'm continuing to write them because of close friendship.

When you write an article on Medium and someone subscribes, do you move them over to Substack?

If not, how do they benefit you?
