I've previously disclosed that I made five figures in one month on NewsBreak. Unfortunately, my distribution on the platform came to an abrupt halt about 9 months ago (despite being a community voice pro). And as a result, I stopped publishing and began spending more time on Medium (where I've seen a much better financial return on my time than I ever did on NB).
NB, in my opinion, doesn't seem to want to give writers the same distribution that it used to. At least, that's certainly the impression I have based on dozens of conversations with top writers.
It's a shame as I used to think it was a wonderful platform.
