First thing I think is - Bravo Kristina!

Two major reasons I have chosen Medium and so far enjoying it enough to stick around are :

- no adds,

- human curation.

There are other reasons too, but if those two ever disappear - the platform would no longer be for me. Not that my presence is of any significance, just what works for me. When every platform does more/less the same (variations of 'content mills') Medium has far better chances of succeeding if taking a different road than trudging the same old.

Thank you, Kristina.
