Medium is NOT a blogging platform, contrary to popular belief. Blogging is owning your content, and when you write for Mediium, make no mistake, it belongs to Medium.

Although, I just switched over from Wordpress to Jekyll, and I find it there to be a lot less friction for publishing. I talked more about the new and exciting workflow of Jekyll at http://rmorabia.com/redesign

I really don't agree with the author here. Hackability is what's aided my decision to publish more. It's just that a lot of people get caught up in the hackability more than the publishing.

Also, there's no data backing this post. I've seen plenty of active Hakyll sites. http://gwern.net is my favorite example.
