I was a regular writer over Medium.com

My account was suspended. I have requested several times to reactivate my account. But their team is very rude.

Don't waste your time on such platforms who doesn't value you.

Medium contributes to the western censorship agenda. Any writings that contain opinions on topics such as Covid, Russia, Israel (among others) that doesn't conform to the running narrative will be removed. The Medium "Safety Team" may also suspend accounts depending on the perceived severity of these violations. If you are seeking a free speech platform to share your writings, I highly recommend Substack instead of Medium.

At first I really like Medium. I was following a specific company who posted their latest news on Medium. Those stories were actual official press releases from the company. Often there were really cool embedded videos. Easy to use and awesome pictures and videos.

But then I noticed something. I read a news story regarding the war in Ukraine. Interesting story but then I soon saw stories that were very one sided and slanted towards Ukraine. From reading all the stories you'd think Ukraine had beat the Russians ten times over. All you had to do was watch the traditional evening news and have an ounce of common sense and realize this was hyped content. It became very obvious when I started noticing ads from the authors complaining they were not getting paid fairly and then it clicked. Watch the Netflix documentary called "The Social Dilemma" and everything becomes clear.

From articles from wives crying about how they ruined there marriages by bringing in a third person for a threesome or going to an orgy (seriously, what did you think would happen), to a so called military expert discussing how the Chinese sent their top stealth fighter to the US to train with the USMC. All you had to do on this latter article was google Chinese J-20 in USA and you'll get reputable news sources give you the real scoop.

As a result of these examples and others, I have cancelled my membership. Total waste of money and more so my time. Watch the "Social Dilemma " before you spend another cent on the internet.

I've made several accounts on this site, every single one has been restricted or banned for reason relating to the suppression of free speech. My most recent account was banned for "promoting violence" as a result of a piece which had a total of zero references to any sort of violence, and rather than properly communicate the moderators decided to simply allow their AI audit program to override uncommon sense. This site is fine, as long as you don't attempt to discuss any subjects which might upset the delicate sensibilities of modern weak-willed feminists.

Great platform with an attractive and easy-to-use interface. Medium pays a decent amount per view compared with similar platforms and is a friendly place for writers to share their work.

Grossly Unfair and Censorial of Opposing Views
March 22, 2023

Medium allowed me to write 14 pieces and to engage in civil discourse with other authors in the comment sections. But suddenly, my account was deemed "suspended" and "under investigation." No longer can my writing appear publicly on the platform, nor can I react to anyone else's columns. But that's not all...

The site's "Trust and Safety" team notified me by email of my suspension because something I'd written had been deemed "hateful." The team even sent me (via the same email) a very wordy section of its governing rules entitled "Hateful Speech."

As anyone would, I asked Medium politely in my email responses if they would simply cite the exact words that resulted in my censorship. After 11 such requests over about a month, they have not replied. Censorship seems to have been applied to me based on my views, not because of anything hateful. Meanwhile, there were quite numerous writers on the site whose retorts aimed at were meant to smear and insult me in childish fashion. There were both disagreements and reliable instances of my desiring to engage in discussion, but a rare few of these angry folks replied with anything substantive or content-rich. Almost everything toward me was derogatory.

The only response I've received from Medium is not easily explainable. An insufficient answer came in reply to my expressed desire to understand how my account's deactivation was considered fair by Medium with regard to the First Amendment. The reply stated the nonsensical attempted explanation that "We are a private company." Therefore, Medium provides what seems to be an open forum for public speech, but when it hears from writers with convictions they dislike, their staff claims that they are a private institution—as if this relieves them of the horrible responsibility of respecting the rights of all to speak freely.

Medium's judgment must be based on this grossly biased censorship. I pray for all this company's staff and for the wider generation of youth who care almost nothing for the Founders of the United States, for our Declaration or Constitution, or for the million-plus patriot warriors who gave their lives and limbs securing our freedoms. Medium's feelings-based ideology is the new Ten Commandments. Violate this policy, and punishment is sure to follow. While others are writing at a productive rate and earning money, I'm forbidden from sharing my views or experiences.

Blog elsewhere, my friends.

I came across an article on medium.com named The Dark Side Of Modeling written by Evangeline and I was very disappointed. The reason why I was disappointed is because The writer dramatized her experience in modeling and was mostly bias/ less factual. In fact her modeling experiences sound very unrealistic. The writer stated that so many girls (the writer should provide a more accurate amount if they do not know the accurate amount then they should stick with the word some) are desperate to be models (This is BIAS) not a lot of girls are desperate to be models after knowing the fact that models get sexually harassed/abused and are seen as sexual objects (also known as sexy) not pretty. The article sounded like the writer just made up her modeling experience and tried to make it convincing with the help of pictures/ some facts. The writer was being very subjective and not sticking to facts consistently throughout the whole article. The writer does have the freedom to write what they like but they need to be conscious about what they are writing and how that will affect their readers. What the writer actual wrote in the article is not matching/consistent with the articles title. The writer also needs to be aware that if they are going to be bias then they need to write Opinion next to the articles title. Lastly, the writer needs to stay on topic not off topic according to the articles title. The articles title says The Dark Side of Modeling not What I think the Dark Side of Modeling is based off of my experiences in the Modeling industry. The article should've been written out from an objective perspective not subjective. The writer should keep the article in 3rd person instead of 1st person as well. This article does have some facts (which I appreciate the writer including) but still has a lot of biases in it as well which I did not like at all; I was expecting the article to be more fact based.

My review
January 31, 2023

That's truly an awesome forum simply in account of these reasons: First, personally,i suppose that interface is really nice and i do enjoy writing here my stories. Second, it's EXTREMELY SPLENDID that Medium has its own voiceover function with a really wide variety of different languages. And third,it can read the articles by itself (though, it's a part of the previous point but that's also an advantage so I've decided to include it as well.)

Bad Business Practiec
August 4, 2022

Medium is closing accounts without warning and confiscating all monies earned. There are already numerous bad reviews, like one I just read on this platform. For all victims out there, share your story to warn others. There are many better platforms out there. We should boycott the bad ones.

The contributors/writers of Medium have an appalling way of using the English language. It's tantamount to scraping fingernails down a chalkboard. The opinions of the writers are shoved down the reader's throats, as opposed to just being an expressed opinion. This makes Medium's writers a sham. They need to learn how to write an opinion piece, not just spew anger, vitriol, and loose prepositions all around. Every time I'd read one of Mediums "articles" I'd start with an open mind, looking to be educated perhaps. But no, their contributors bring so much angst, anger and "you must see/have my opinion!" that I would come away thinking "Well, there's another wasted 10 minute read."
Ergo, my partner and I have discontinued the Medium feed, never to be assaulted again. Take your vitriol somewhere else, Medium!
Oh, and remember this, every story/opinion has three sides. Yours, mine, and what really happened. If you don't understand that concept, you have no understanding of debate, law, and sharing ideas in a positive manner.

I was a paying customer of Medium.com. I paid a monthly fee and in return I could publish my articles and earn money from them.

Medium cancelled my account without giving any; specifics as to why, and seized my earnings of approximately $1,300. Again, they did not give any specifics regarding what comments and writing of mine violated their rules, and they did not cite any specific rules. They refuse to answer my emails.

I am a full-time, professional writer in New York City. I have published more than 7,000 articles on business, finance, politics, and religion,. I have NEVER seen editors do what Medium editors are doing. It is not only unprofessional, it may be illegal. Most certainly, consumer watchdog agencies have grounds to investigate Medium's secretive editorial practices and seizure of earnings.

I want the money I earned as a Medium writer. Their treatment of paying customers is shocking.

The team at Sitejabber was amazing and I couldn't have asked for more! They helped me every step of the way to make the loan process very easy and worked with me to get me the loan amount I needed. The team is very knowledgeable and will even help you look over your investment deal to make sure you're getting into a great deal. If this is your first time working with a real estate lender or if you have others you work with, Sitejabber would be the choice!

This app called Make Money! From medium.com is a complete fraud. I've spent the last month completing tasks with my very little extra time. And that is what was wasted, my time. I collected enough points from there system in which they owe me around $100. I've requested payouts three different times where I had reached completion of tasks totaling more than the required amount to withdraw and haven't seen a dime in my PayPal acct. They have responded only only once to my numerous emails asked about the eta of the money to my PayPal acct. The emailed asked me to answer these series of questions verifying my identity, which I did, then they followed with everything checks out and wrote I should be expecting my payout in the next day or two. It's been three weeks and still no money. I've sent 7 different emails since then with no response. There is only one thing against us as human beings in life. TIME. This app completely wasted my time and I'm sure they will waste yours too. When you see the make money app don't let it waste your time. Just move on.
