I’m a long time paid user of Medium, but ever since they went on a censorship spree during COVID, wiping out amateur analyses and discussions, I have a bad taste in my mouth about supporting them. They have shown that they will abuse their platform position to enact their own censorship, leading to dominant manufactured narratives. If they’re going to behave just like every other existing news or social media channel, I’m not sure why I need Medium. More recently I’ve seen Medium begin their own online “magazines” which carry the same biases, except it seems more officially blessed.
Here’s the WSJ son controlling the virus narrative, specially about Medium:
