@umairh Raises great points.

But Medium is NO substitute for the egalitarian public platform Twitter has provided!

Medium’s paywall—and its requirement that posts be long form and “professional-caliber”—preclude its being a good communication or political organizing tool for us peons.
@umairh Can just anyone post a 280-character comment or a 25-comment thread on Medium—for free?
Can everyone who wants to do so on a given day or in a given hour do so?
Can everyone who might want to read such things do so—for free?

If not “yes” to all three, then no dice.
@umairh And also, any platform that doesn’t provide free space—to an unlimited number of users every day—for promoting business startups or the work of aspiring creatives or crowdfunding appeals or mutual aid or advice…
is no substitute for the #Twitter we know and love.
