Medium need to make one change and they would be back in the game immediately. Remove the forced signup and login. Monetise in a thousand other ways but that bait and switch is so user hostile.

RIght, that is the issue. As it is, Medium is just one of the domains I'm never going to click on. I expect low-quality articles everywhere. That's not the real problem. It's the ridiculous paywall, and it'll continue to die as long as that's in place.
