Hi Linley, Sorry you have fallen foul of the mute button too, if that is what has happened. I know there is a function to disable comments but I can't understand why anyone would use it. For me, the comments sections are where all the fun and connections are made. Maybe if you get really big and famous you don't have time to check in and reply to us ordinary mortals. Wishing you all the best on your Medium journey, and many thanks for reading and taking the time to comment. A🙏💚
