I can't read the article since I don't own a Medium account. Why does the author need me to sign in?
- codegladiator 7y agoDoes medium randomly chooses who should login ? Because I didn't get a login prompt.
- pacamara619 7y agoDelete your medium cookies, should work then.
- harel 7y agoOpen it in Incognito mode.
- busymom0 7y agoI don’t think it’s the author. I think it’s medium itself which sometimes forces that login popup. I get it too but I get rid of it by going to incognito.
- rollinDyno 7y agoThanks for the tip. I think some responsibility lies on the author as he chose which platform to publish with.
- visarga 7y agoMy policy is to close the window, be it Medium, NYTimes, etc Plenty of free access websites to cover my needs without them. Why should I jump through hoops if they don't want to share publicly?
- rapind 7y agoWould you rather be advertised to and spied on (pretty sure they track you regardless of whether you're a paying customer though)? Personally I'd rather pay for quality content than this devolution into everything is clickbait.
- Zenbit_UX 7y agoNo, you can't read the article because you never found the close button on the medium pop-up.
