I've been here since May 2015. I've never seen that much success on the platform. But I have used it to open other better-paying opportunities. That's why I stay. The small investment pays out dividends in myriad ways. We have to be willing to look past the money aspect. Medium has opened a lot of doors for me despite my feeling like someone at the top is out to get me for my plagiarism complaint a couple of years ago.

Other than that, I love it here. I wouldn't have found you guys otherwise.
