Im gonna chip in and say that yes while they allow randos to post to the same extent i imagine the average person views a blog post/article as more legitimate when it has the branding of substack or medium attached to it rather than someones unbranded personal website
Funny… I’ve often felt the exact opposite.
Medium articles often look janky; if you’ve got a personal website you’ve at least figured out how to get that working, and if it looks good, that’s a positive signal!
Think myname@gmail.com vs me@myname.com
