Its the only solution for 2020 web. Plus, of course, vpn and adblocker.

The only solution? So... in 2020 the only place to publish long-form content is Medium?

If you're using an adblocker, might as well add a paywall blocker to the mix: https://github.com/iamadamdev/bypass-paywalls-chrome

You can just block cookies from medium.com and everything keeps working.

It doesnt work for everyone, I always use firefox auto-mulitcontainers where each tab has its own container with no history and cookies and I still get blocked by medium

Often when using incognito doesn't work for "limited free articles" paywalls it is because you haven't restarted your browser in a while and have had incognito windows open for a time too. Session cookies happily persist in incognito windows while you have them open and are shared between such windows.
