Excellent thoughts and lots of good news. Really glad to see things are going well, and thank you for all you've done to promote good writing.

I would like to second what Anders Mond says in these comments about the automated blocking of spammers who put up phone numbers or WhatsApp stuff in comments. That's a gnat I have to keep swatting on a regular basis.

But overall, things have been very positive for me on Medium lately. I'm very glad that my writing on cinema is appreciated, and sometimes even my fiction - my main focus off this platform - draws interest. Before you made the changes discussed here, I think a lot of my work got buried by the clickbait. So thank you again. :)
