Ratings and reviews

Great for beginner writers and for all readers. It is absolutely amazing, but with the free version most of my recommendations were the members only one, there was one free story for 5 members only story which makes it difficult to find a good story to read as a free medium user, the explore page is not good, and a lot of (most of) the times i can't refresh for different suggestions in the explore page. And PLEASE!!!!!!!!! a DARK THEME!!!!!!!!!

Very good app with amazing content. I don't often subscribe to apps, but here I did because of the very good recommendations and articles. However, for now I cannot give five stars because of the inability to scroll left and right properly. So many sites out there where you can just scroll code snippets without problems, but here when scrolling left or right you need to be handling it with utmost care, otherwise it will scroll down or up. Very annoying, it ruins the reading experience, really.

The search option is nothing to say about. Doesn't bring up meaningful posts Ans says not available even though the content is published on medium. Also, the website lacks dark mode. I use most of my apps in dark mode but since medium doesn't have that option, I've stopped using medium and adopted other platforms. Im pretty sure lots of people stopped for this reason. I hope y'all fix it but till then. Medium is a negative platform to me and I'll never recommend.
