If by "similar to Medium" you mean "shows your users annoying popups if they're not logged in and doesn't actually do RSS so you can't get all your feeds in one place", then I certainly hope not :)

You can actually get the RSS feed for a publication when you add /feed/ in front of the publication's name, for example https://medium.com/feed/the-new-york-times

It's not advertised the correct way, so feed readers can't find it, which makes it effectively a non-starter for most people I'd think. They're doing the Google thing where they implement the spec just enough to claim they implement it, but not enough for anyone to use it so that they can claim it wasn't their fault and no one used it.

That's still good to know for the future though, thanks.
