There are several reasons why I dislike Medium. I think I will never use it as it is yet another golden prison, luring you to enter and never leave their walled garden.
Aniket recently wrote What Happened When My Rich Friend Told Me to Stop Programming.
His rich friend comes from an already rich family and he’s continuing his father’s business. Quite a lucky guy, I would say, but he may also be smart. I don’t know him so I can’t say. He told his friend Aniket: “You should quit programming and do something that makes you super rich like me”.
It’s so easy, isn’t it?
Too bad Aniket does not tell us what business his friend is into. I wanted to ask him but there is no way, at least not before logging in.
Walled garden. That’s the sheer opposite of what has made the net a place of freedom and prosperity.
