I launched The Taoist Online on Medium to share wisdom, growing it to 190,000 monthly viewers with diverse writers. Medium’s lack of tools frustrated me—poor editing queues, communication, and platform changes drained my passion. I took a break, faced a breakdown, and returned to a declining Medium. On June 1, 2025, I’m moving The Taoist Online there as a newsletter for philosophy and spirituality.

Join me as I tell the tale of how The Taoist Online started, grew, and ultimately declined.
