“This” is fine as long as it isn’t the only content of the comment. It is simply a signal that the following text isn’t meant to contradict what they are replying to. It’s a simple shorthand for “I wholeheartedly agree, and furthermore …”
I find it irritating, but I can see your point.
But I don't post using medium that often.
I use GitHub README.md for my journal. I have been journalling in the open since 2013 and I am up to 700 entries. (See my profile)

Why move from one corporate entity to another? Substack will end up going down the same road in time. Get your own domain, fire up a CMS and start publishing on something you control and own.

You would prefer a centralized and curated old-school publishing mechanism.
Why move to another provider? Have a look at https://indieweb.org/POSSE
Hosting your website on GH seems much easier. Also free. Also you have a copy of your website that you can self-host whenever GH decides to ban you and point your domain name to new IP.
If you are a builder/creator (even hobbies, with 2 users) and generate contents, please get your own domain. Either you use a service/tool or otherwise but own the content. If you use a service and is important enough, take backups. Own your content, use eveything else as tools. These days, the question I usually ask is, "Can I walk out of this and what do I have to do if I need to?"
Domains are super cheap and easy to get. Everyone should have one (especially anyone who calls themself a hacker). Ideally you would also self-host your servers, but having your own domain is the most important thing, because you can always change your hosting provider, whereas it is impossible to go back in time and rewrite all of the links to your old (now deleted) medium.com blog. "Owning" a domain just means you…
What if your hosting provider or authorities seize your domain?

I was able to find his Medium page by looking up "henrylim96 medium". What's troubling to me is that this isn't some trigger-happy autoban - someone had to actively seek him out. It could have been someone who "snitched" on him, or (I suspect) a Medium employee.

I like Nearlyfreespeech.net for stuff like this. For $1.50 per month, they let you easily host static HTML files. You don't have to learn about servers or routing or anything. https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net/services/pricing
