Medium - you disappointment.
Imagine. A place without the Social Media noise. A place to go to read what the great minds are thinking. A place without Advertisements or Clickbaits. That place was Medium. It is no more. But isn't Medium a business? It is a business at the end of the day. There is no free lunch. Medium has to pay its staff. The investors need an exit. But shouldn't knowledge and thoughts be free? Human Kind has progressed with the free flow of knowledge. Whenever knowledge was dammed, chaos reigned. Human progress slows down. When knowledge is shared, we grow by leaps and bounds. Tesla made all its patents open source. So other electric car manufacturers can develop on it. Volvo invented the seat belt and opened up its patent. They saved millions of lives. In contrast..

Or like India
