And this will demotivate the content creators.

Be respectful please, don't be evil.

Yes. You're right.

So Medium should switch to ads instead.

The content creators should move to Dev.to

It's unethical. What do you mean people should write in Dev.to @oriash93 or @davwheat how'd you make any decision for Medium :/ ? It's unethical and you guys are basically stealing the content.

To be honest, I couldn't give a flying fuck.

If medium cared that much, they'd make the hiding of articles even better, preventing this extension from working. They haven't, so I'll happily take full advantage of this.

They normally allow unregistered users to view the articles once before asking to register. How is this any different to reading an article, clearing your cache and cookies, then reading another? Oh yeah! It isn't!

Dev.to is better in my opinion, and that's my opinion.

They are charging at an unreasonable price. I'll be glad to pay for the membership only if the price were under 20USD/year.
