So much knowledge stuck behind a paywall.

I disable all that. Does it not work? https://medium.com/p/b429b91850a5 https://medium.com/p/b429b91850a5

  The sign up to discover popover still happens. For a lot of people that is reason enough to just hit the back button and not even read.

    I see. Guess I'm moving away from Medium then.

There was a time when Medium was useful. But those days are long past. I wonder whether the writers who still use Medium have assessed the trade-off between the minuscule revenue produced and the negativity that they engender. As a means for showcasing talents and expertise there are better options than Medium.
