Custom domains for publications, mentions, and UX improvements in the editor are awesome! Big vote down for the new logo.

Yea, although I love some of the concepts behind the new logo, I'm not feeling the connection to the core value of what Medium represents-- beautiful writing. How does this logo connect to writing in any way? The previous M looked and felt like high end type. And that's what you do on Medium, isn't it, type! This new logo, while cool in it's own right, doesn't speak type, writing, or storytelling to me.

I've loved Medium for a long time - in fact I still hear from people (other authors wanting to link/interview me, prospective clients, etc.) every singe month directly from my very first Medium post.
Medium on mobile is...so-so. Much better than the original app, but the nature of a content network means there's a ton to fit on a small screen's UX.
My only real issue with the app is the writing interface (which should be Medium's strongest point if the website is any indication). It's reminiscent of the beloved Medium writing interface, but some of the features
Pros:
In general, Medium makes long-form content simple to write & scale. The mobile app is great for quickly responding to interactions.
Cons:
Mobile search & Drafts could use more functionality - in particular, being able to organize/tag/group drafts would be extremely helpful.

Not crazy about new logo but new features sound awesome.
Love Medium. Not loving the new mark - the previous mark was more conceptually tied to the service.

Not a fan of the new logo at all. The old school M really helped cement the brand as something different as opposed to the generate a logo this M looks like.
