Why we can't have nice things: so long Medium

I'm a nerd. I like to read about science and technology. I also like to participate - write content, answer questions, etc.

When Medium first appeared, I was excited to see a new format for content creators to directly share their work. I even paid for a subscription. But it has gone the way of Quora: click-baity titles with a ton of bad content. It's unfortunate, because some Medium content is still good, but it is too hard to separate the wheat from the chaff. Goodbye Medium.

As an aside, i think the same thing happened to Quora. When Quora first came out, i was quite active there: one of the top contributors in neuroscience. But now it is pretty terrible. The questions are repetitive and trite and the answers are often pure opinion.

wow. i should really re-read my toots before tooting....
