Feature Request
medium.com is a blogging site.
You can download your posts, see https://help.medium.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004745787-Export-your-account-data.
There is also an API, but it is deprecated. See https://github.com/Medium/medium-api-docs.
It would be nice if I could take my medium download and make pelican posts out of it.
I'm filing this because I'm thinking of trying on this, so I thought I'd get an issue # for the branch name.
I might even be able to use existing RSS functionality, and I just have to figure out how it works.
Sure enough, I can use the RSS feed option, and I submitted some doc changes to describe it in #3262.
However, it looks like the medium RSS feed only returns 10 posts, and I don't know how to get it to return more. I tried URL params limit, max-results, page, and paged without success.
So I might still need something to parse the HTML. I'll keep looking.
