If you’re going to write about accessibility, don’t publish your post on @Medium. It’s not accessible, doesn’t offer alt text for images. Despite multiple requests over the years, @MediumSupport has no plans to improve accessibility on their site. #a11y #accessibility

“Yeah, we’ve got a website, but we’re going to put our blog on @medium.”

If you’re blogging on @Medium in 2019, you’re doing it wrong. It used to be a shining example of good readability and user experience, now it’s user hostile at every opportunity.

@LeftonBomb @Medium I remember hearing a talk from someone in 2005-06 that had a similiar idea. Since then I’ve fallen back to:
– Visitor
– Audience
– Customer
– Patron
– Guest
– Enjoyer
– Reader
– Person/People

@Medium @round 🆒 What if you want to read stuff though?

@verybadhello I couldn’t get @medium’s new tweet a picture of highlighted text to work.

Every time I see a really good piece of writing on @medium, I think, “Man, that’d make for a great blog post on your own site.”

Hey, I like @Medium and all, but since when did all the cool kids give up on our own personal blogs?
