It used to be true that Medium gave you exposure much like TikTok does it nowadays where you post* a video and it's instantly put in front of thousands of people. Medium had great network effects, but today you can even rank lower. Also, once you post on Medium, that content is theirs to use freely. My advice is for you to use your own blog. It's harder to build traffic that way, but all of these traffic is yours. In my opinion, a blog well put together is far better that Medium or any similar 3rd party blogging platform. You may not have the same network effects starting out, but that traffic is yours to keep. EDIT: Clarity.
