I only have one Medium account now, and I use it simply for publishing fiction and poetry. My earnings vary from $10 to $80 per month, but its something I do for fun/relaxation, rather than a consistent form of income.

To be honest, I soon lost interest in publishing parasite SEO posts on my other accounts, although I know it can be successful. Its not something I enjoyed, so I moved on!

ohw, did they give you a reason for the ban? Havent posted there in ages. Should probably just make it a regular action, after I posted a new blog post or update an old one.

I used to do all of it for SEO reasons, when I just posted a new blog post: immediately share it everywhere, on Facebook, Pinterest, Youtube (community tab), Instagram, Medium and sometimes Reddit. Stopped doing that for most, except Pinterest and Youtube. ( I get a lot more likes and engagment on YT than ever on Facebook). But like you, I got so tired of doing that. (separate messages for Facebook, rephrase it for Medium, rephrase it again for Reddit, ugh, got sick of it lol). Especially because my niche is image rich, not just text based. And then after doing all that, I was an hour further already.
That being said, I'm still sure I SHOULD be all over Facebook, Medium and Reddit again, because that is where my audience is. I.. Just..Have.. no.. energy any longer for that, after my hack ànd losing a Reddit account. Sigh.
Just ranting and complaining lol

@ohnoo_not_her This was last year, after I tried Parasite SEO, and Medium cracked down on certain product reviews as being spammy. 

But Medium can still be very useful for ranking your posts and sending traffic. You can see from this screenshot, that a post from a website I uploaded over 2 years ago, still gets views, with nearly 5,000 visits from Google.
