Reader mode is a thing, but if you can suggest a better (ahem) medium to repost it to, I'd be happy to!

(Honestly, I'm sort of with you on the medium thing, but I posted this years ago now...)

View on HN

github pages + markdown/jekyll ?

every single medium.com blog could be just github pages in my opinion

Maybe substack?

Or Ghost.

The reading experience was so good on Medium a couple of years ago.

Nice! I made my first Ghost post! https://in-the-beginning-was-the-command-line.ghost.io/the-m...

This is one reason why I prefer keyboard-based UIs that do not automatically change anything that affects the UI while the UI is active (and being able to select things by entering a number or a name also helps, rather than having to use the arrows). (I also dislike touch-screen for many other reasons.)

haha ... looks like "follow the money" applies yet again to get to the root cause ...

Analogy to Dilbert’s/Peter’s law: saas will be enshittified until the marginal revenue gain of next enshittification level is 0.
