I don't find Medium to be particularly white label, it seems very overt in it's branding. Loading an article off their front page on my phone, this is what I see:

What's interesting is that I remember back when I first looked at Medium, it seemed more whitelabel than that screenshot. But I guess that's the point of the original authors post. Medium is a for profit company, and they're going to change the platform over time to try to make money. That may involve changes you don't like, but are unable to act on since Medium has all your content.
- derefr 11y agoYou're right, that's a more branded experience than I remember as well. In fact, it's worse on desktop as well: they have a bottom-bar now. I definitely had a cached thought that Medium was something I could sign up for if I wanted a fancy white-labelled pastebin, but I guess that's changed.
