I am not talking about quality of writing. I'm talking about people who think they're experts at something but actually have no idea what they are talking about. No matter how good you get at writing, an idiot is an idiot. Plus, huge chunk of Medium posts are self promotion disguised as an "insightful post". I am not trying to discount what Medium is trying to achieve, nor saying the platform sucks. I just think the format and structure of the platform encourages a lot of shitty people to try to take advantage of it.
