Even if that were true, it doesn’t matter. The NYT is THE NYT and Medium is just another Quora/Pinterest/rando website.
Medium has not earned the right to paywall content, the NYT has, apparently.
You need to find another way.
Maybe a pay by the drink subscription model.
Put a button on each article so I can decide how much I want to pay, with zero as an option.
Put a little counter at the top so I can see how much I’ve spent this month and how much has gone to authors vs the company.
If the content is that good, people will pay, I know I would. But I ain’t paying monthly for something I don’t use regularly and I ain’t paying to read something based on a title.
