I’m super excited to announce that I’ve officially begun the process of moving Videodame over to Medium. I’ve been itching to update the site design for awhile, now, and I’ve always dug Medium’s aesthetic. (If I’m being honest, I modeled my initial font styles after Medium’s in the first place.) Plus, it looks fantastic on mobile—a format that has always been wonky for me here.
Mostly, though, I appreciate how Medium’s community seems particularly readerly and/or writerly, and, as a reader, I’m finding myself there more and more. Videodame’s focus has always been on the personal—I never wanted it to be a place where I was hustling for clicks by churning out gaming news and PR announcements at a breakneck pace. Medium seems like the perfect place to maintain that focus.
You can find the Medium version of Videodame at medium.com/videodame, and I hope you’ll follow me there. I’ll be keeping this version of the site up and running for awhile, mostly so my former Player 2 writers have a place to maintain their authorship. As of now, Medium won’t let me manually change the author of a post, so I can only give them credit directly in the text of the piece. That won’t be a problem for Players 2 going forward, however, so don’t be afraid to pitch!
Any and all new Videodame posts will be going up on Medium from now on, so please join me there. Thank you for reading, and I hope to see you soon.
