    Very strange but informative. It is good that you have put it back to its status quo. TessSchlesinger, I think such things might happen sometimes as editors would also be preoccupied in their mind to make the article more attractive or less clumsy but sometimes their efforts might not yield the desired results and then they can simply resort back to the original or ask the author to do so. It might not be something intentional but a communication between the editor and author might help to avoid such embarassing situations.

    I considered Medium as well, but I am worried about publishing in too many places, as I also have my website. I guess it never hurts to consider all the options available.

      Very interesting, and definitely something to look into, always good to go where you are much more appreciated on the many articles you have to share.

      I have tried, unfortunately does not support South Africa, they said I would need to await for a notification once they support, that may take a while. Any other options perhaps available until then...

        Wow, with just 6 days, that is promising.

        No banks remotely close to where medium supports that are close by, and with the lockdown, I can't really get around. They don't support PayPal either, and you have to provide an account to which they are supporting.

        They mentioned if I request, I will need to pay $500, or the other option is I wait.

          Thanks guys for clarifying! I don't think I have anything special to share over there. I will give it a thought though.

          I have never had a job that I agreed with everyone.  At HubPages, there have been edits that I don't agree with and I have either accepted it, emailed my explanation of why I changed it back, or found another way to edit the article that I was happy with and met the editor's desire.  At Medium, they put you behind the paywall or in front of it, HubPages at least tries to give you some direction.  Very little has changed here, and most of the changes that do occur are forced changes to follow algorithm changes with ads.  An article on HubPages takes about 8 months to mature, Medium can be faster depending on the topic and following.
