Another insightful article, Yana. Thanks so much. I arrived here in Sept having heard some writers are earning $5-10K/month and quickly discovered they’re the ones who were here and solidly established back when there were way more readers than writers. I

When news of money spread, writers flocked to Medium. Now way more writers than “just readers.” From what I’ve heard, this is the biggest challenge to reads and income generation.

Even since I started eight months ago, I can feel a huge shift in this situation. So I’ve gradually accepted that this is not a place where I’ll earn enough to support myself. But it can be a platform to finding clients for my other work (Tarot readings, guidance for “life stuff” etc.).

Thank you for another excellent read. 💖
