Oof. That sounds like Medium on steroids -- and with the added possibility for censorship (re: approval), it doesn't sound very freeing. Having to meet the required 3 quality articles per week is difficult to imagine, especially since most of us still have day jobs and other writing commitments -- plus the added 'mandatory' element really takes the fun out of writing especially when income is not guaranteed -- and is still quite frankly pretty low for what you give.

And if that site is anything like Medium, most readers will flock to the fluffy stories first -- which will affect readership and content. I foresee an eventual race to the bottom content-wise.

This could be just a "me" problem, as I know some writers are able to meet these requirements, but that just doesn't sound appealing to me.

But, could be wrong on all accounts and this could really take off.

Thank you for sharing this!
