The code for me would be a way to create the MVP for whatever idea I have. I started learning to code because I didn't want to depend on others to create my idea. Once I create the MVP, I would like to switch the technical side to a more technical person.

Thank you for the feedback

Thanks for the feedback! Definitely gives me more motivation to start it.

It'll be pushed to others, just like every other social company. You'd be posting it to the feed where friends can see your video.

You can say the same thing about BeReal. It's easy to just cover the camera and post a black screen, yet no one does it.

I 100% agree. Medium was cool back then, but then it went downhill.

interesting. i wish there was a social blogging platform that had interesting posts to learn about things, and a way to compensate writers without ruining the whole experience.

100%. That was the worst mistake Medium made.

I agree with you, but the younger generations are going to be the "leaders" of the world and they love short form content. Everything points towards short form content being the biggest thing while long form content and text content becomes niche.

Great blog. You made good points and I'm sure many of us feel the same way.

Can't Medium generate revenue through ads? They have the network effects so they should be able to place ads on the website to keep it running like the other social platforms do. They could even split the ad revenue with writers.

Just ideas.

Why does that happen? Why can't Medium allow writers to publish whatever they want without being worried of censorship?
slymerson

Why is it less inclined to censor?

Also, true. They do have more control over their payouts.

Yeah there isn't much variety. There would have to be some way to make the app "pop" more so that it gives it life. What would you recommened?

Long form content will become more niche, at least when it comes to text. I prefer long form reading content over short form content so it's nice having platforms like Substack and Medium, but IMO there needs to be something better. I would love a new social blogging platform that actually does well at showing you content you'd enjoy AND that ensures the posts are quality.

Easier said than done I imagine.
