I cut $1M/month in costs in the first month. Now we're working on quality.

What is your opinion on the Substack model (both as a publisher and as the CEO of Medium)?

You should get rid of the sign-in to read model. It’s avoidable with a browser extension or incognito, but also makes the medium experience horrible. Almost the main reason me and everyone else I know avoid the site entirely.

Aside, nice work. Excited to hear what you can bring.

Your username is “pirate”… why would a businessman care what you and yours want? You’re on different teams.
