Thank you so much for sharing these metrics, Bin. How would you evaluate your earnings per time spent ratio though?

If I remove the time spent on publications then it’s not that bad.

That comes as a surprise and is good to hear. Thank you for letting me know!

I’m not doing well on medium but perhaps I am also much less active - it’s like a viscous cycle - the demotivation.

Well done to you for persevering. I let my Medium membership lapse about 3 months back. There are other sites to which I can publish that pay much more (for example, the Metatrader site mql5.com pays at least $200 per post). Money isn't everything, but the medium payment model has been broken so severely that it destroys much of the enjoyment I used to get publishing to the platform. I'll not return to the platform until they fix it properly rather than tinkering around the edges.

Maintaining earnings has been the hardest thing to do this year.

Always good to see some old friends coming back on. I know the motivation is just not there anymore for many.
