Medium is such a garbage site these days. So I open this article in Safari 12 on Mac, and I am unable to scroll. Nothing floating above the content that I can see, but it just wouldn't scroll. I wish people would stop using this shite. There are much better alternatives out there.
The absurd is, a few years ago Medium was seen as a hope for change in a sea of bad sites. Now it's one of the most glaring example of bad sites.
- pjmlp 8y agoWas it never a garbage? I really don't get the point of it.
- LeoNatan25 8y agoThere was a time when, at least to me, it represented a clean way to read high quality articles. Now, whenever I open an article, I wonder if I'd be bombarded with float shit, or something else non-functioning, or general slowness (it's a text site that crawls). These issues didn't exist in the past.
- moreira 8y agoOn that subject: There's an article on the front page right now, from a company's blog (and domain), and the page starts with "Medium uses browser cookies to give you the best possible experience. To make Medium work, we log user data and share it with processors. To use Medium, you must agree to our Privacy Policy." What if I don't agree with Medium's policies or terms of service? I can't even read a company blog without having to consent to some unrelated company's terms? Medium in general is just consuming all web content, and when they make changes (or break scrolling, as per your comment), they take everyone's blogs with them. Everyone's ceding control of their blogs and articles to Medium, and for what?
