    It should be illegal to gate content made by users with a registration.

    Not the case with Medium, they have, uh, “volunteer” writers. But point stands.

    Medium.com is absolutely rotten for this behaviour.

    Not only putting the soft, “sign in to view” but then on some articles requiring a full hard paywall… But you only know this after signing in.

    I’m not entirely against charging for well written articles; good writers deserve compensation, but don’t tease me, make me jump through a hoop only to find there’s another much higher hoop sitting beyond it.
