Don’t mind me — I’m just a placemark!

Have you noticed that Medium’s latest iteration of our profile pages has our shortest posts taking up the most real estate in our profile feeds?

It’s like there’s been a role reversal.

Longform posts — by that, I mean anything over one-minute reads — are displayed in tight, one-size-fits-all preview boxes with a thumbnail image and one clickable tag. Where have the other tags gone?

Shortform posts — anything under one-minute — are completely free-range.
