Member-only story
It’s astonishing!
Dear writers, you need to add a donation possibility to your Medium profile!
I had quite a good month on Medium and wanted to give something to fellow writers whose articles were outstanding or helped me solve problems in the past. But sadly, none of the writers of these articles provided any possibility to tip them. No Paypal link, no Ko-fi, no Buy Me A Coffee, no Patreon, …
I’m shocked right now! 😲
This is wasted potential, wasted earnings. Let’s assume, one of your articles goes viral and attracts a lot of (external) viewers. Some of them like your words because they help them solve a problem or because they get inspiration for their next project or because they save them a lot of effort and researching time.
They want to tip you … but they can’t since you have no link added.
I know what some of you might think now
- My content isn’t good enough
Let the reader decide about the quality. Don’t be too harsh on yourself. - I have a Medium referral link, that’s enough
That’s good but maybe a member wants to give you a tip? Or what about…
