The issue is that there is no “part of Hackernoon”. There’s just Medium. Hackernoon used Medium as a publishing platform, but really they’re just a grouping of Medium content with no special ownership or rights over the content. An unfortunate position for a publisher to be in.
- smooke 8y agoThe key here is that hacker noon publishes exclusively on hackernoon.com, and the majority of our contributors have agreed to continuing doing so.
- Veen 8y ago“Hackernoon.com” is a domain. Nothing is published on a domain. It’s published on a server or platform the domain points to. In the case of Hackernoon, that platform was Medium. Medium is the publisher, the hackernoon editors were doing unpaid work for Medium.
