Walled gardens suck. Once we had “the blogosphere” and it was great, and then Medium came along and did their best to ruin it. I tend to avoid any post on Medium and will never give them a dime. And as the OP points out, there’s tons of mediocre content there anyway. It’s almost always possible to find better content elsewhere, just needs a bit more search tweaking.
