I didn't see your technical piece because Medium only shows me random stuff now lol. I think removing tags has really hurt a lot of topics. I totally agree with you re: which subjects do well here. For me there was always some balance, but it feels lost at the moment. I am hoping I can get more hits on my pop culture stuff at Vocal because you are right it's a dead zone here. What a mess. I just wrote kind of the opposite of this piece, why blogging drove me to Medium lol, I was trying to remember the positives. But maybe it's come full circle. If they are determined to kill off our community and ability to find each other what is the point. Ugh.
