Just opened Medial inbox after 10 days 🔥 And I’m confused— Did I miss some secret “Like my startup, I’ll like yours” pact? 20–30 DMs, all the same pitch: "Hey, upvote my idea on Showcase and I’ll return the favor!" Bruh, is this a startup pitch or a college fest popularity contest? Look, I get it. Early traction is tough. Visibility is gold. But if the only way your idea gets love is through barter likes... maybe we need to rethink the product, not the upvotes. Feels like Showcase is slowly turning into the new spam folder. And that's sad, because the intent behind it was solid real ideas, real discovery. Let's not kill the vibe before it even takes off. Build something that speaks for itself. If people believe in it, they’ll click that damn heart without a deal. Niket Raj Dwivedi

Since you have Medial Premium, I'll recommend you to block all the verified users from DMing you. Just allow Followers, Following and Non Premium Users to dm you 😁 I do that and it works well

one simple solution to this , medial itself suggesting showcase ideas on the feed (randomly) as they do for their ads to share medial app , natural traction isn't enough and if you see someone with a b grade idea gaining more upvotes than you just by asking people in dms why would they not try the same , but as soon as everyone starts doing this , it kills the real purpose mostly everyone (but not all) in comments in showcase is just writing great idea , good idea , there's no real critic or questioning the idea or giving hard feedback , that's why I'm doing that , but sadly even the best ideas in showcase lose because there are many flaws that we couldn't see and we used to think that, there any many better ideas and these didn't deserve to win, because it's not made clear why is the idea better or flaws in your idea
