> Medium was just an easy way to start writing.

I understand and empathise. For sure it is much better to just start writing than to spend months obsessing over which technologies one is going to use.

> I am planning on moving to a platform where I have more control (was thinking self-hosted static html) eventually. Do you have a favorite alternative?

Not-Medium is my favourite alternative! The bar is low: any static site generator would do fine. I wouldn't even mind you hosting on GitHub pages or whatever...
