This extension allows you to access Medium articles for free on both normal browsers or Incognito browsers by clearing the cache that only belongs to Medium. Also, all Medium-backed publications like TowardsDataScience, The Mission, Personal Growth, etc. are included to free access. There are many articles about how to access Medium articles for free. The most common way is to open the articles on the Incognito browser. However, it is a very cumbersome way to do it.

You need to restart the Incognito browser or clear the cache on it manually for every 3 articles that you want to read. This extension mainly automates this process. Features:

This extension makes Medium.com more readable by hiding the header/footer when reading the articles. Both the header and footer can be displayed by scrolling up, it uses a pattern visible on many modern reading sites but for some reason medium doesn't reduce nor hide their header/footer forcing you to have an inferior reading experience. |
