Here are my reasons to switch from Medium to my own custom blog.
I have posted my contributions on various sites over the last few years. On medium, dev.to and internal company blogs. What always bothered me was that I was bound to their system and requirements. On medium it…
Yesterday I really wanted to do something with Python. Also a friend sent me a link, which contained many currently free computer science books from Springer. Now I didn’t want to downloading each book separately.
