I agree with everything Natalie has said. She always says what i want to but does it better. I confess that I have touted the read,clap,comment advice but only as a way to get to 100 followers; and I only send it when i get those "I followed you, so please follow me" things in my response box. You have hit the nail on the head here. And in such an entertaining way. My guess is that the big guns may still support and engage with any of the friends they made in the early days of their Medium journey, but maybe there aren't many of those left for them. I am not going to change anything i do just yet - the connection I have with a few others here is such an important part of why I love Medium and I'm not ready to give that up in pursuit of dollars just yet. But you have got me thinking and I realise I should be focussing more on writing better content. I need to evolve! Thanks for this, A🙏💚
