"I despise that my treasured medium has been taken around the corner and pimped out to entrepreneurs to whom “writing” is merely a synonym for “content.”"

I agree with this so much it hurts. The witterings of vacuous entrepreneurial nitwits with not one artistic bone in their bodies, who mutter this sort of soulless nonsense about "content", are an absolute anathema to me.

And yes, I accept the business/marketing side as a necessary evil.
