Not really on topic but can we discourage the use of medium? It’s annoying to have to open these links in incognito and on top of that they do some other things that make reading more difficult.
- geofft 7y ago> It’s annoying to have to open these links in incognito Note that the thing that looks like a paywall isn't - while Medium does have paywalled articles, they're rare (and as far as I can tell this one isn't) and at the discretion of the author, not of Medium, anyway. Medium aggressively wants you to sign up if you've read more than n articles in a month, but you can just click the X and read n+1 articles.
- zinodaur 7y agoThere seem to be two versions of the paywall for this article - one you can click an x on and one you can't. Which version you get seems to depend on if you have Adblocking enabled when you visit the site.
- danek 7y agoWe must have gotten different versions. I’m on mobile and my paywall didn't have an X to close it. I have seen the thing you’re talking about on desktop though..
