The reason bosses "don't get it," as with Medium and at other institutions, is that the minute they attain power, their focus actually is not on serving readers or customers. Their lascivious concern is putting their icky hands on systems that fatten the bottom line. Writers/workers are considered replaceable peons. They are looked down upon as an annoying means to that end who must be controlled/cajoled. All those pennies bosses don't pay people really add up. And their penis rockets come in many forms.

I agree with your thoughts and what the other commenters are saying. Nothing new to add. Wait, that's not true. I do have one thing to add, even though Medium is not great for writers for all the reasons that have been mentioned, I still get more readers than back when I was just doing a personal blog for free. Remember those days?
