As someone once said:

“It’s called medium, as the articles are neither rare nor well-done”

I used to really like medium, cool articles written by interesting people, looked nice enough and i had fun giving like 20 thumbs up lol.

But then it went super walled, paywall for everything and its like they tried super hard to monetize. And truth is, ive never visited it since. Maybe the ocasional article, but even with an account im like urgh ill just lool elsewhere

Please continue running your own blog. Don’t give some other company “free” content.

I hate that the entire modern internet is controlled by a few corporates.

The downsides to running your own blog are lack of technical knowledge/interest, and reduced monetization. Since you’ve already overcome the problem of technical knowledge, and you aren’t looking for monetization, please continue running your own blog.

As for visibility, maybe your could start sharing links on lemmy? Perhaps you could start a dedicated community of your own if you’re hesitant to post it on other existing communities.

I liked Medium for a while, but now I avoid it like the plague. Too much junk and too many paywalls it’s not worth bothering. I’m more likely clicking on anything else when it shows up in my search results.
