“ As for Medium, is there a way to know which “members” are following, supporting your work? Your 20K views with very few members reading a particular story is not encouraging. It also is not fair.”
You see the names of people that clap or respond to your story, also the names of followers at the time they initially follow you. Truthfully, I’ve gotten better at giving them what they want. Highlighting comments and quotes, links to supporting data. I still feel like on subjects like politics and race, if the article doesn’t align with the views of the Curator it doesn’t get approved.
