    Probably the fact that it’s a centralized service while blogs were inherently decentralized.

        I assume they mean that blogging isn’t something that it makes sense to decentralise.

        I didn’t say Medium was decentralized, I said blogs were decentralized. Medium is centralizing a decentralized thing, which is terrible.

          Yes, but in my parent comment I asked specifically about the differences between Medium of the past and Medium that it is today, and you made a comment about blogs being decentralized, so from your comment I inferred that in the beginning Medium was also decentralized and that’s why it was acceptable, and in turn why \u\kixiQu said they liked the “past” state of Medium better.
