Why oh why do you guys suntset the affiliate program for the Medium Partner program??? Please strongly reconsider this fast, you will need people do advertising for you - also outside of Medium - and it sucks to have tried selling it so hard while now it's being turned off... it's a "turn-off" to say the least... if you really need to turn it off, at least think and provide an alternative affiliate program of some kind. This is "free marketing" you're surrendering here without any new alternative [even though you deviate these additional streams back to reading time benefits]. Just sayin'... think and provide an alternative for the affiliate link/ program soon! You'd be one of the few online companies without one...
