They used to get along.

I haven’t been shy about what I think about what I think about Medium’s new pay formula. I also haven’t been thrilled with the lack of transparency regarding pay issues. With that in mind, I’ve changed my call to action.

Here’s the situation

Larry and Medium used to be buds. Then Medium started taking a huge junk of Larry’s money. Larry was upset. He was so traumatized about the incident he started referring to himself in the third person when talking about the incident.

You can be Frank Sinatra

Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis famously had a falling out. Frank Sinatra helped broker a reconciliation. You too can help broker a reconciliation. A reconciliation between Larry and Medium. Sure, Larry is the injured party in this, but can you help Larry overcome the despicable way he’s been treated by Medium.

Despite being a consistent contributor to Medium and generating a ton of read time for the platform and then subsequently being kicked in the teeth for his efforts, Larry wants you to know he’s not bitter.

You can help by responding to Larry’s new panhandling approach.
