Is Medium Worth It in 2026? | Interview with Medium CEO Tony Stubblebine
Is Medium worth it in 2026?
Obviously, our answer is yes, because we're not only Medium employees but also long-time Medium superfans. So, we're a little biased.
But I made this video to explain why we think Medium is worth it in 2026, and who exactly it's for. Who should write on Medium? What can you expect from Medium in 2026? What's our stance on the creator economy, AI, and earning money on Medium? Plus, what actually IS considered a good clickthrough rate on Medium?
Medium is the best place to read and write on the internet in 2026. In this video, I hope to give you all the information you need so you can understand whether you agree and it's right for you.
