Can we all stop using Medium now?
I was writing on Medium because it ranks well in Google. I wrote nearly a dozen really great articles on primarily health and dietary supplement topics. After 2 months they started to rank well and were getting daily readers, as the content was really great. Then I wrote an article on a &#x27;research chemical&#x27; and they banned my account overnight. I lost the final edited versions of all content. They did not send me a zip with the content. They could have simply deleted the offending article(s) but instead they deleted all of them.<p>The thing is, the thing I wrote about isn&#x27;t illegal. When you write articles on Medium keep in mind you&#x27;re writing on someone else&#x27;s website and they don&#x27;t give a damn about you. You are subject to their opinions about what is appropriate and what isn&#x27;t. I have no doubt if an alt-right voice wrote on Medium and were controversial enough in their views they&#x27;d be deplatformed.<p>But also the way they handle it is just rude. Fuck them.
