Here’s To Great Conversations
There’s plenty of doom and gloom going around on Medium at the moment. It’s not too surprising given all the profile tweaks and the bizarre curation choices and the new layout that stops poets monetising their work.
But can I just take a moment to appreciate the community on here?
In the past few days, I’ve had several disagreements in the comments sections of articles, both mine and others’, and without exception, the conversations have been respectful, argued in good faith, and resolved without any name-calling, threats or nastiness.
How often is it possible to say that about an online community?
Who knows what the future holds for this inspiring community, but whatever it is, I hope it continues to be a haven for great writing and equally great conversations.
