I would be glad if we disabled posts from Medium content on HN. Mostly shallow anyway.
I have nothing against Medium articles, but they really have no place on HN. If you want to read Medium articles, they have an app that already aggregates content for you. Furthermore, if we can't really archive these sites to share with everyone else, it's just a moot point. Every Medium article that I see on HN just feels like a trojan-horse ad.
1. Open link in a private window, if that doesn't work
2. Use the 'Web Archives' extension and click archive.is to view the shared article without paywalls.
For mobile, I wonder if there is an equivalent 'web archives' app that lets you share a web link to it to open it automatically in the app.
At this point, I wish HN just provided an archive.is or similar link along with the original link.
