Medium subscription - pcsailor - Nov-04-2018
Hi,
Anyone have a medium subscription? How do you like it? I'm considering it as I've run up against the paywall a few months in a row now.
Thanks,
Phil

Interesting site, but I would think there are sites offering same or similar for free.
RE: Medium subscription - pcsailor - Nov-04-2018
No disrespect Larz, but I'm guessing you don't know the background of Medium. It was started by Ev Williams and has some of the best writing on the internet.
Test for yourself by searching for any subject. They're doing some good stuff sourced from all over the world.

If you think it's so good, why aren't you willing to pay $5 a month for it? That doesn't seem very steep.

Easy answer: new daughter, high medical bills, high food bills, paying two mortgages, new career making 1/3 what I used to.
Saving $$ every way I can.
Question answered?

Yes, I think you answered your own question.

python and IB on Medium.com
This link is an example of why I ask.
With Mediums free version, you can only access 5 stories a month, even if they're bad. Once you open it, it counts. This is just one subject of some very high quality, specific things peole are publishing on Medium. I'm going to have to get a subscription, but not just yet.
