Why I am trying Medium...
As many of you, I am trying to put some information out there. At the moment I am writing about JavaScript and Angular. The experience at coderwall has been mixed.
Positives
- Developers feel
- Nice looking UI
Negatives
- Poor performance
- I can't give access to people to my full list of protips without being asked to get registered
-
Poor formatting. See these bullets? Just don't try to get your code looking good...Fixed now after a change request: bullets, code formatting
Looking at other options... Medium
Today I have written my first entry at Medium. It's not ideal but I will try a little bit longer to feel the difference. See the result for my latest protip medium vs coderwall
Positives
- Hipster feel
- Nice fonts
- Accepts github gists with acceptable formatting
- I can create collections and give out a single public url
Negatives
- Strange editor flow
- Simple default code formatting (Alt+6)
- Ackward paragraph blocks vs markdown freedom
Let me know about your thoughts or other alternatives.
