Ratings and reviews

I already pay for a subscription for Medium. Almost every time I open the app to read a member only article, I keep getting asked to upgrade to a higher level. This is a ridiculous and non-sensical thing to do, but I guess Medium does not care about how annoying this is for already paid customers. Other than that, I enjoy reading the articles that I am interested in.

My experience was satisfactory until a few months ago -despite the increasing AI-generated content, but since then, I've been getting notifications about irrelevant articles on 'how to win my ex'. In an attempt to help the dev team with the diagnosis I wrote feedback with a fairly detailed description of the problem, what I got in response (within exactly 10 minutes, likely from an automated bot) was useless. Sadly I am cancelling my subscription and removing the app from my mobile device.

it's a good app. but the Home page recommendation does not reflect my true expectations. have been a premium user and noticed that recommendations are not being personalised well and also when I am in home screen and refresh with the intention to get a different feed, I get the same feeds repeated over multiple refreshes. I can't copy text to the code editor in mobile version. can't add an image to a blog that is already published, which shows in the draft but not the final blog
