My Thoughts On The Medium Day Keynote Speech →


Writer

Linda Caroll

Summary

Linda reflects on key insights from the Medium Day keynote speech, offering their perspective on challenges facing Medium writers. The recent expansion to 77 new countries has likely increased competition for coveted boost placements. Despite over a million members, only 9,661 upgraded to the higher 'Friends of Medium' tier to better compensate writers. The author speculates that upcoming 'publication level boosts' could improve boost performance by initially promoting stories to a publication's existing audience. While the boost system has benefited writers, Linda acknowledges room for refinement as Medium continues evolving its platform.
