This. I never felt recommendations were a problem. I stopped reading medium articles once everything was behind a paywall. When most content is mediocre at best, paywalls aren’t helpful.
- wkat4242 4y agoBut even if the content is good.. Annoying me with making an account and only viewing 3 random articles ensures I'll never find out how great it is. Making an account is a pretty big step if you're just consuming content. Unless those 3 articles all happen to be amazing which is unlikely, and even then it's still a very large jump to a pricey subscription. Not everyone makes silicon valley money. Ps not sure if it's still 3, because I haven't visited medium for about a year now.
- carlosjobim 4y agoCould you give an example of 3 amazing articles that would make you purchase a subscription if you found them on the same platform?
