Why I don’t care about Medium and why you shouldn’t either

And why this headline won’t deliver

The hype over the medium is just that. Hype. There are countless blogging platforms out there, and in the end, if you want to be a serious blogger, you need to own your platform. If you truly want to own your content, and avoid all the scrutiny of censorship, you have to build your own house, on your own terms.

Building a content business on somebody else’s turf, for the purpose of community and increased exposure, simply doesn’t make sense.

The purpose of writing this article is the irony. And all I want to do right now, is just give you that thought, and let it sip in. Because ultimately this is written for the “Medium Community”, nobody else gives a damn.
