Sorry about your loss, for one thing. That is always a difficult journey. Sorry about your Medium friend, too.

I'm writing much, much less frequently here because of the platform issues. I think a lot of it has to do with the introduction of all the new countries that are now on the platform. I hope they work it out because ,ultimately, those new countries can provide us interesting, new, and vibrant voices.

Unfortunately, a few bad actors ruin it for everyone.

I'll stick around, but I sort of have one foot out the door until they make noticeable improvements.
