I was a regular writer over Medium.com

My account was suspended. I have requested several times to reactivate my account. But their team is very rude.

Don't waste your time on such platforms who doesn't value you.

I've made several accounts on this site, every single one has been restricted or banned for reason relating to the suppression of free speech. My most recent account was banned for "promoting violence" as a result of a piece which had a total of zero references to any sort of violence, and rather than properly communicate the moderators decided to simply allow their AI audit program to override uncommon sense. This site is fine, as long as you don't attempt to discuss any subjects which might upset the delicate sensibilities of modern weak-willed feminists.

I was a paying customer of Medium.com. I paid a monthly fee and in return I could publish my articles and earn money from them.

Medium cancelled my account without giving any; specifics as to why, and seized my earnings of approximately $1,300. Again, they did not give any specifics regarding what comments and writing of mine violated their rules, and they did not cite any specific rules. They refuse to answer my emails.

I am a full-time, professional writer in New York City. I have published more than 7,000 articles on business, finance, politics, and religion,. I have NEVER seen editors do what Medium editors are doing. It is not only unprofessional, it may be illegal. Most certainly, consumer watchdog agencies have grounds to investigate Medium's secretive editorial practices and seizure of earnings.

I want the money I earned as a Medium writer. Their treatment of paying customers is shocking.

Bad Business Practiec
August 4, 2022

Medium is closing accounts without warning and confiscating all monies earned. There are already numerous bad reviews, like one I just read on this platform. For all victims out there, share your story to warn others. There are many better platforms out there. We should boycott the bad ones.

Medium contributes to the western censorship agenda. Any writings that contain opinions on topics such as Covid, Russia, Israel (among others) that doesn't conform to the running narrative will be removed. The Medium "Safety Team" may also suspend accounts depending on the perceived severity of these violations. If you are seeking a free speech platform to share your writings, I highly recommend Substack instead of Medium.

Highly recommended
October 13, 2021

The team at Sitejabber was amazing and I couldn't have asked for more! They helped me every step of the way to make the loan process very easy and worked with me to get me the loan amount I needed. The team is very knowledgeable and will even help you look over your investment deal to make sure you're getting into a great deal. If this is your first time working with a real estate lender or if you have others you work with, Sitejabber would be the choice!

The contributors/writers of Medium have an appalling way of using the English language. It's tantamount to scraping fingernails down a chalkboard. The opinions of the writers are shoved down the reader's throats, as opposed to just being an expressed opinion. This makes Medium's writers a sham. They need to learn how to write an opinion piece, not just spew anger, vitriol, and loose prepositions all around. Every time I'd read one of Mediums "articles" I'd start with an open mind, looking to be educated perhaps. But no, their contributors bring so much angst, anger and "you must see/have my opinion!" that I would come away thinking "Well, there's another wasted 10 minute read."
Ergo, my partner and I have discontinued the Medium feed, never to be assaulted again. Take your vitriol somewhere else, Medium!
Oh, and remember this, every story/opinion has three sides. Yours, mine, and what really happened. If you don't understand that concept, you have no understanding of debate, law, and sharing ideas in a positive manner.

Top choice for blogging
December 1, 2016

I think Medium is a lot more than just a blogging platform. It creates a community of carefully selected content. Right now, I'm following several communities on Medium, and use it myself for my self-development projects. Medium created an environment where writing becomes easy and natural.

My review
January 31, 2023

That's truly an awesome forum simply in account of these reasons: First, personally,i suppose that interface is really nice and i do enjoy writing here my stories. Second, it's EXTREMELY SPLENDID that Medium has its own voiceover function with a really wide variety of different languages. And third,it can read the articles by itself (though, it's a part of the previous point but that's also an advantage so I've decided to include it as well.)

Great platform with an attractive and easy-to-use interface. Medium pays a decent amount per view compared with similar platforms and is a friendly place for writers to share their work.

I will start on a positive note- the articles are generally interesting and reflect broader that the standard "centrist"-biased pablum that's spooned out on the more famous "mainstream" sites.
My biggest issue is the inept mechanics of trying to comment on an article: when you go to comments you get a pop-up page that covers the original article. If you want to check something in the original article before you sound off about it, you really can't without loosing what you've been writing.

For a site that strictly limits free views (2 per month) and puffs itself on its relevance, it's rather shabby to slip articles into the daily recommendations that are actually months or even years out of date.

At first I really like Medium. I was following a specific company who posted their latest news on Medium. Those stories were actual official press releases from the company. Often there were really cool embedded videos. Easy to use and awesome pictures and videos.

But then I noticed something. I read a news story regarding the war in Ukraine. Interesting story but then I soon saw stories that were very one sided and slanted towards Ukraine. From reading all the stories you'd think Ukraine had beat the Russians ten times over. All you had to do was watch the traditional evening news and have an ounce of common sense and realize this was hyped content. It became very obvious when I started noticing ads from the authors complaining they were not getting paid fairly and then it clicked. Watch the Netflix documentary called "The Social Dilemma" and everything becomes clear.

From articles from wives crying about how they ruined there marriages by bringing in a third person for a threesome or going to an orgy (seriously, what did you think would happen), to a so called military expert discussing how the Chinese sent their top stealth fighter to the US to train with the USMC. All you had to do on this latter article was google Chinese J-20 in USA and you'll get reputable news sources give you the real scoop.

As a result of these examples and others, I have cancelled my membership. Total waste of money and more so my time. Watch the "Social Dilemma " before you spend another cent on the internet.

I was enjoying the occasional article on medium and was very satisfied with the reading material they have but after a while I noticed that as a free user you have a limited amount of reading unless you pay a subscription. Can't afford it right now, I do wish there was some option to get more free reading instead of just waiting a month.

Great for developers
December 14, 2020

I see that there are lower reviews for Medium.com on other subjects, and I have to admit that I have only ever gone to medium.com for one purpose - to look for excellent resources on Computer Science and Software Engineering and Development.

The computer science resources on their news site are amazing. You can find everything from tutorials, to introductions to new technology, to new use cases for existing tech. I have used medium.com as a resource extensively for my computer science master's and have received no criticism from any professor on the validity/accuracy of the posts.

Edited due to spelling errors.

A series of racist rants, medium.com is an ill-meaning caricature of a platform for hate. Why is a platform purportedly by, for, and about African Americans entirely devoted to commentary about whiteness? Every article on the site reads like a Russian troll operation's caricature of black-splaining. As a platform for celebrating hatred and intolerance, it succeeds.

This app called Make Money! From medium.com is a complete fraud. I've spent the last month completing tasks with my very little extra time. And that is what was wasted, my time. I collected enough points from there system in which they owe me around $100. I've requested payouts three different times where I had reached completion of tasks totaling more than the required amount to withdraw and haven't seen a dime in my PayPal acct. They have responded only only once to my numerous emails asked about the eta of the money to my PayPal acct. The emailed asked me to answer these series of questions verifying my identity, which I did, then they followed with everything checks out and wrote I should be expecting my payout in the next day or two. It's been three weeks and still no money. I've sent 7 different emails since then with no response. There is only one thing against us as human beings in life. TIME. This app completely wasted my time and I'm sure they will waste yours too. When you see the make money app don't let it waste your time. Just move on.
