Why is Medium filled with, what I call, celery? I consume articles, but there is absolutely no substance.
Is there some unknown incentive for these people to share empty “enlightenment?” It’s as if these people are becoming content farms being graded on number of articles published.

Both it and Reddit are YC ventures and it seems like YC hasn’t moderated away people disparaging how awful Reddit has become in attempting to monetize/ROI it’s audience.
