Comment on Telegram is a breeding ground for extremists, scammers, and terrorists. It’s time for moderation to get serious.

  The only time I see medium is links to blog type stuff.

  I've seen telegram spam all across the internet, the list of platforms I haven't seen telegram spam on is basically the list of dead ones.

    I'm so confused, what else do people expect to see on Medium, ads for sugary breakfast cereal?

      Large popups that prevent me from reading the content

        Ah, well, at least my article wasn't behind a paywall. I could have used write.as, but I felt like more people would see it on medium, and it didn't seem like a big difference.

    Exactly. Medium is just a joke because it’s only people blabbering shit. It’s just extra long tweets.

    Not that comments on lemmy are any better, but they don’t require linking to an external source for unsourced opinion pieces.

      You realize that I sourced pretty much every single assertion I made, right?
