It's simplified: people need the SEO leverage of Medium instead of running your own website and SEO optimization (it takes time). Otherwise I don't see any else advantage of Medium. For the reader, there's an advice is to use reader mode on browsers, but Medium is limiting a few _free_ articles you can read.

Those are the thumbnails and you may end up seeing them with a subpar connection. The site lazy-loads the images.
