Is it so hard to believe that some people just want to share their thoughts with the world and don't care about profit or building their personal brand?

I am not talking about building personal brand, not sure how you came up with that, nor am I talking about profit. Medium and other blogging platforms are content firm, basically you are working for them, under the guise of simplicity and they are (or will be) making money off of your writing.

This is stupid.

If it's not about personal brand or profit then why would the writers care that the platform is making money out of their content?
