I used to LOVE Medium. It has been a godsend for learning specific web development concepts through their software developer writers' walkthrough demos.Today, I'm halfway through setting up a walkthrough on my computer and I get Medium's all too frequent message these days: "To keep reading this story, create a free account."This is disgusting. I just wasted over half an hour on an article I apparently can longer read. (How can you give me access to an article and then suddenly decide half way through my reading it that I have to now pay for access??)This blatantly obvious and overly-aggressive push for monetizing off their readers is getting out of control.From now on I will sadly be going Out of my way to avoid Medium articles and find reference material elsewhere. (Cannot believe I am even saying this - was such a huge fan of this group.)Such a shame for what seemed like was a good-natured company with integrity to take a turn like this...
