Ask HN: Best way to filter out Medium from Google search

I use uBlacklist Firefox addon to block results from Google. It adds a block link to every result. If an annoying website is in the list, block out and you'll never see it in the results again. Bye bye pinterest, slant, stackshare, ebay. With Pinterest and eBay you need to edit the block and add every country TLD or they'll creep in via .co.uk, .ie, .fr etc.

TBH Medium isn't nearly as bad as those I've just mentioned.

Thanks for the pointers there. You are right, that list is even worse. I'm just finding Medium particularly annoying if I search for anything related to machine learning or data science. It is just full of post after post of people regurgitating other basic content. Or maybe that's an indictment on the state of these fields.
