Thanks for a well written piece. I can relate to what you’ve written. My first ever article was distributed and I wasn’t aware of it until a week later. Then the streak went on. My first 10 pieces were distributed. I broke the chain by writing one article about Medium. When it comes to reads and revenues, I think curation does peanuts. I am still clueless why they choose my pieces, why they distribute and why I am still not a billionaire. ☺😁
