Content Farms on Medium

3 points by chenpengcheng ↗ HN
I came across many posts from Free Code Camp, HackNoon and CodeBurst which usually starts with some exciting title but not much substance. I haven't followed them and these posts take half of my screen. How do I customize the feeds for higher quality posts?

Don't follow them? I don't understand why you had to ask this here, either.

Those are three of the major dev focused publications on Medium so it makes sense to ask it here because there are more technical practitioners on here who probably read the same stuff. I'll let the OP actually explain - but that is my gut feeling

The contents pop up in "Top Stories". I did not follow them.

The biggest thing you can do is to actually start engaging with content you like and the platform will sort it out. Clapping/visiting/commenting and sharing what you actually like will prompt more of that content.
