I think the neat thing about Medium is that it has the Facebook style validation. Surely, you're more careful about what you say on Facebook because your name and profile is attached to everything you post. Medium is the same. The focus is on you, author is you, no handles, or anything. Makes it a lot less likely for you to post some garbage clickbait. |

Hardly. Buzzfeed, the epitome of clickbait, has author bylines. As does the Daily Mail. Some of the best blogs I've ever read have been anonymous, and the famously high-quality Economist has no bylines. The thing that makes people less likely to post clickbait on Medium is that there are no adverts to pay them for clicks.
