If those direct links sent me somewhere else tomorrow I would care, because odds are the alternative would be better. Medium is seriously annoying with its sign-in nags and large amounts of the screen taken up with unnecessary bars.

I just want to read an article. Medium is a worse experience than average in that regard.

I use the Web Annoyances Ultralist[0]. Blocks basically everything except the header (non-sticky of course) and the text, which ends up as a nice centered column on a white background.

really cool thanks. the combination of uBO and NanoDefender is absolutely awesoome but I didn't have this Ultralist as part of my setup yet.
But what about claps? You can clap at the article.
And how about that highlight feature that often points out the corniest sentence in the whole article as the "top highlight".
