This is actually great. I won't create an account, so I've spent a lot less time reading empty posts on Medium and more time just going about my day.

Is Medium now forcing people to create accounts to read posts or is it just a setting that this subdomain turned on?

#7Please don’t editorialize titles, four out of five times the editorialized title is strictly worse, and often it’s straight up wrong, like in this case. If you don’t like the original title due to omission of info, you can at least use the HTML title:
> wikiHow’s art is made by a global network of freelancers, primarily in the Philippines.
(Emphasis mine.)

It didn't block me, and I don't have a Medium account. Firefox 72 on Linux, ublock origin, Germany.

Why is it always Medium that's blamed for this but not mainstream news websites? I'm pretty sure I've been paywalled by sites like NYT yet people keep posting links to them.
