I'm Matt Baer, and I'm tired of annoying, user-hostile software. Inspired by this and a time when Medium was more readable, I built a writing platform called Write.as that works great if you never sign up, lets you read, and leaves out the comments, claps, and dickbars. It's perfect for when you just need to get your thoughts out — and if you want to share, you can always cross-post to Medium.

Disclaimer regarding extension permissions

This extension requires access to all websites in order to make Medium articles on publications with different domain names than https://medium.com also readable.
