My solution was to use an extension – Make Medium Readable Again – that, as of its features, removes the intro fullscreen ad. It's available for Chrome and Firefox, as far as I'm aware.
- Semaphor 8y agoIt is available for both indeed. It makes it usable by removing all those horrible "features" and design choices.
- bogomipz 8y agoI understand there are browser plugins available but when reading text content requires installing extra software to improve the experience my solution is just to go read content somewhere else.
- MarsAscendant 8y agoThat's fair. My experience with Medium has so far ranged from neutral to highly-positive, with a lot of articles on cutting-edge web design technology or methodology. If you don't wanna read it, that's fine. I'm just saying that if you do, there's a way.
- baroffoos 8y agoCould also use your browsers reader mode which does an amazing job at making websites usable.
- mrhappyunhappy 8y agoI’ve been using reader mode for months and love it. I set it to auto open all links in reader mode and now hardly ever look at the styles version. It’s amazing how much more readable websites become with the extension. I’m also a UX designer, hows that for irony.
