I have a self hosted blog currently, and I’m considering posting it on medium.com

I blog mostly for fun and I have not tried to monetize it. Are there any reasons to not use medium?

What about alternatives like substack?

    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.

      There’s so many junk bloggers who make a small blog to become known or have it on their linkedin… when most of their posts are max two paragraphs. I don’t blame medium there, but they did lose the premium feel in my book.
