Adding to GPs list ("stupidly large sticky header/footer and without cpu melting javascripts"): also the modal box saying "Pardon the interruption" every time I go to a medium based blog.
- endorphone 8y agoThis is quite the diversion on the submission, and I apologize, but to add to your point Medium seems to be getting worse over time. Which of course it is -- as always it started as a minimalist tool "about the content". Then the whole "how do we monetize this" thing happened. Now there are fixed headers, footers, various interrupting popups, and the real question should be "what's next"? Clearly they won't stop at this. Hiri at least used a custom domain. It's incredible how many authors just hang off the medium domain, committing the sharecropping mistake that has happened so many times before.
