Interesting. I get it though. It's been the opposite for me. I love the friendships on Medium I've found that venture beyond writing. Some even surprised me. One medium friend I thought I was going to be a fan only her writing and come to find out she just as chatty as me. You never know. I do have more discernment and know how to the read the room. I'm kind of extra. My conversation style isn't for everyone. So I have my all about the writing friendships and the ones that go beyond that. I value them all.
