   In your opinion, is it worth it to publish New articles here on Hubpages?

      I don't think so. I am waiting for the dust to settle.

      I guess the big question is, are you currently making money here on the articles you've already written? If so, you may want to continue, but if not, you might want to look for another writing site.

   For now, I'll publish a few articles here until I find a new writing platform, then I'll move everything there.

   I was already on a self imposed hiatus from writing new stuff when things started hitting the wall around here, and so far I am not seeing any reason to return to active duty.

   It depends entirely what your motivation is. If it's money you want then the answer is no and it hasn't been worth it for several years.
   
   I'm still publishing here because I love writing and it keeps my aged brain active.
   
   Of course, I would greatly appreciate payment commensurate with the effort and skill level, but journalism is no longer a path to riches because publishers have discovered that machines come cheaper than humans.
   
   So Eric, if you find a platform that offers reasonable pay let me know. As far as I can tell there isn't one.

      ...but when the articles were moved to Discover, you have become the ''Father of Disappointment'' and the ''King of Sarcasm'' here.

   As Rupert says, it depends on your definition of "worth it".
   
   I've stopped publishing here. It's certainly no longer the revenue-sharing site that it once was.
   
   HP is undergoing radical change but I fail to see a happy outcome for writers.
