The candidate, Journy.io, explicitly states it is an "open source, private cloud, Medium alternative from journalist. It provides platform for publishing articles, post, and journals online." This directly aligns with the core concept of an online publishing platform. While the website content is limited due to being a GitHub repository, the description clearly indicates its purpose. The mention of "publishing articles, post, and journals online" implies the necessity of a rich text editor for content creation. However, there is no explicit mention or evidence of a recommendation engine, monetization, engagement metrics, or community feedback tools within the provided content. The other features are also not explicitly mentioned or demonstrated.
I've been using Alternative A for 6 months now and it's been fantastic. The pricing is much better and the features are actually more robust than what [Product] offers.
It handles edge cases much better and the API
is actually documented properly.

Honestly, after trying both, Competitor B wins hands down. Better customer support, cleaner interface, and they don't nickel and dime you for every feature.
