Did you notice the difference?
November was a bit frustrating for medium family. The “unknown status” affected the overall morale of writers, and everyone experienced a decline in performance of their articles.

Not only that, a sudden suspension of many writers, including reputed ones like Harsha, without any reason or justification, added more fire to frustration of writers.
Every writer lost around 10–30 followers overnight. Some were happy because the general assumption was that medium is getting rid of spammers and bots, while some were depressed on losing followers.
Above all, the worst thing that we experienced during November was low earnings. Every other article that I open was about earnings and low EPR. It’s heartbreaking to earn pennies for writings, we poured our heart into.
Many new writers became a victim of all this situation and quit.
I didn’t write any article about my November achievements and December resolutions because I was unable to meet my November targets and like many others, I didn’t set any December goals due to this uncertain situation.
However, I was amazed when I opened my dashboard to check my earnings for 1st of December, I earned $8. Isn’t it surprising? Unfortunately, I didn’t take any screenshot of it. Following is my screenshot of earnings of first two days of December.
