How would this advice apply to writers of research-intensive journalism and analysis such as: https://medium.com/lessons-from-history/chaos-theory-russian-style-9635f3c02b7a ?

All the examples in the earnings screenshot are articles about personal issues that require no research, reading and critical vetting of sources.

When a single article requires 5-20 hours work nobody can write 2/day.

How does this advice apply when writing a single article like this one https://medium.com/lessons-from-history/mythbusting-tour-vietnam-a-war-with-no-winner-part-1-393f013bff01 requires reading multiple book-length sources, such as Stanley Karnow's The Vietnam War?

As a retired history and investments prof, this is my metier, which I have no intention of changing at 68. In 3 years on Medium has earned me over $5000, extra money that's a nice to have but not essential. On the other hand, I am interested in growing my audience of readers and followers with longer attention spans who like articles that translate PhD-level research into accessible journalistic analysis of history, investments, economics, geopolitics (especially about Russia-Ukraine since Putin started a war on my birthday last year). How do you grow an audience that likes long-form, research-intensive analysis when Medium no longer puts such articles in the feeds of the 1000+ followers I've built up? So far my answer to Medium's slashing writers' earnings with the new algo is to transition to Substack: https://lestergolden.substack.com/

But if you have a better one, I'd like to hear it.
