Seems that fixing Internet with Medium already clearly failed. It's the blog service with the least "diversity" ever, Medium is used mostly by people like its creator: narcissistic developers from Silicon Valley. Even its post creation UI and page look is designed for this audience and causes disgust for others, even for hipsters. And I can't remember any interesting post on Medium, only graphomania about newest js things.

You fail to mention how medium's UI discourages non-"narcissistic Silicon Valley" developer from creating posts? As far as I can see they have tried to remove cruft so you can just focus on the writing. What about that is alienating?
