I tried to post a correction on Medium, but they wanted me to create an account. So I created an account to post the correction and they still wouldn't let me post, something about either my profile wasn't complete or I hadn't done enough to allow posting.
Great business model. Outsource the content creation to the peons but then implement draconian restrictions so you have to jump through hoops to make a positive contribution.
Anyway, the correction is, the book "Set Your Voice Free" is by Roger Love, not Robert Love as stated in the article. Helpful for anyone looking for it because Robert Love writes Linux books that contain very little information about improving your singing voice.
I don't understand why anyone would be suckered into creating value for a place like Medium when they are so obviously exploitative.

- peglasaurus 7y agoMedium is a bit backwards. Their intention is to clean up commenting but all it really does is raise the bar of entry such that people often don't even bother regardless of intent. A lot of medium posts/articles that should have opposing views as comments are often one sided echo chambers because of this.
