Medium has a terrific writing experience. Click a button and start writing. Don't have to think about the title, what the file name will be, none of that. No friction. That's why I've used it in the past.

I have a Hey account and have tried Hey World, and it's... ok. Formatting sucks. No discoverability. Just meh.

I haven't written on Medium in a couple do years now. Last time I did, though, the writer had the option to have the article be part of the paywall or not. I do not know if that is still optional, but if so maybe anger is misdirected at Medium for this (or you could just pay for the content...).
