You're right, Mike. I was feeling aggrieved and angry, and was out of order. I apologise to you and the rest of the Illumination team. I had blocked a couple of new followers, who had seemingly mass posted what looked like AI content, much of it via Illumination (and another large-volume boosting pub), and seen a boosted story of what I considered to be objectively poor quality. I got mad, and lashed out. I shouldn't have. The supportive Medium community deserves better, from all of us.
