dev.to covers a domain in which it is possible to be right (passes the unit test, is accepted by the customer) or wrong.

That makes it ring more hollow than Medium does, because much of Medium is rants and musings that could be right, wrong or "not even wrong" and it wouldn't matter.

I don't go to either dev.to or Medium if I can help it. Do they even offer free reads at Medium anymore?

Sometimes. If you disable cookies for medium.com it annoys you much less.
