It hasn’t been fixed. There are ongoing issues with many readers being unable to clap for stories in publications with their own domain name — many of which house the more literary pieces on this platform. And it’s still an uphill climb if you’re a writer of fiction or poetry. I think for many of us, our views have definitely dropped — as we don’t write the kind of pieces Medium seems to want to promote (seen any fiction or poetry actually featured on the main page of late — that wasn’t commissioned?) — and I think for many of us, our views/readership are largely dependent on our own promotion — not that of Medium — notwithstanding the often brilliant literary writing that’s still buried, unseen, on this platform.
