I loved the old logo, not sure how I feel about this new one just yet..

I'm not a huge fan of the new logo, but I'm sure it will grow on me. More important is that iOS app... absolutely love the update there. It's awesome to see how the platform has evolved in just a few years.

I've used many blog editors out there, and none has proven to be as easy and user friendly as Medium.

Pros:

Beautiful visuals, easy to use, and the best blog editor I could find.

Cons:

None that I can think of.

Love the new design and the wordmark. I'm not sure I understand the M though. Anyway, great work and love the rest of the updates. Better and better!

I really love the concept of medium. There are some things that still can figure out on the new design though. For example, title images? Also, why the logo change?
Rodrigo Prior
@ivarelas I'm also trying to figure out how to put an image on titles =(

More.

Pros:

Better place for finding intelligent opinions!

Cons:

Can't think of any...it's pretty dang good!

Can't express how excited I am for this. The API is super powerful, and the connection to IFTTT hopefully will make it extensible to other services (it's limited to recommendations as a Medium trigger ("this"), and creating drafts as a Medium output ("that") for now, but they promise to open it up further). The possibilities are exciting. Medium factors a ton into of how we connect with people who share our values, and so being able to use the API to make sure we reach everyone would be very important to us.

How do you find your bookmarked stories?

I'm still so skeptical about using Medium, because I know they'll introduce adverts on these beautiful pages one day.
