I still cross-post occasionally with a canonical link and haven’t seen any negative SEO impact, but Medium doesn’t drive nearly as much traffic as it used to. It’s mostly useful for tapping into specific Medium publications or communities—otherwise the effort rarely pays off.
Medium throws a lot of roadblocks up to your average viewership. Everyone I know (albeit mostly people in the tech industry) treats Medium URLs like Quora - avoid at all costs.
Better question to ask might be: do you actively avoid medium.com links?
I know I do.
Haha
