We amassed 469,335 Medium followers. In a reaction to the rise of Substack, Medium has been marketing that they are a trusted place to power your newsletter. Some data about how that went for us. When I exported my newsletter recipients from Medium, the resulting data was a plain text poorly formatted list of 10,422 email addresses, aka, 2.22% of the total 469,335 email addresses that subscribed to HackerNoon. When we removed the Medium CMS from HackerNoon, this was probably the biggest loss incurred. trusted That was 5 years ago. No idea how Medium treats their writers/publishers these days.

These emails, together with all your content on HackerNoon, are ready to be exported any time. publish a story today Cheers to the next reader✌️!
