That "free 3 articles" is REALLY annoying. We are actually building a content-oriented app and Medium is the #1 example of what we DON'T wanna become on all the meetings. Having a completely subscribed platform? Fine. Giving some stuff free then asking for money (Which in my case switching to Private Browsing/Incognito): annoying. It might look nice for authors, but at the end of the day it's the readers who enable that monetization. If you can't make readers happy, they'll eventually go away no matter how compelling the platform looks for the authors. And I frankly want to see quality content move to other platforms that deserve to be monetized and doesn't annoy readers.
