There's medium. But medium is a horrible mess. There's Dev.to which is at least usable and something I will visit.
There's a couple of problems with blogs.
- Sometimes I only want to subscribe to an author's certain topics
- There's still no good RSS reader; I use feedly, but its load-time puts me off it big time (I've tried plenty of others)
- The tendency to sign up for walled garden platforms rather than platforms, or simply use normal websites, that federate well
- The practical death of web rings for discoverability
I've been thinking about the last point more: I don't really want to submit to a search engine's algorithm; I want someone's curated recommendations.
Once I've have those curated recommendations I want something that lets me aggregate and interact.
