Can you get around this by posting the medium version later than the one on your own website? (Obviously, G crawls medium more frequently; so say, maybe, a week later.)
- Jaruzel 6y agoI was going to ask a similar Q, but I'll hitch my comment to yours... (and give you an upvote as well) To get around Google thinking that your personal hosted version is a copy, can you pepper the medium version with links back to your domain/blog ? Would that help ?

It sets up a canonical tag and backdates your post to prevent just that from happening.
