Rationale
The candidate, Dacast, is an online video platform focused on live streaming and video hosting. While it deals with content distribution, its core offering is video, not written long-form articles. None of the 'must-have' features for a content publishing platform like Medium (rich text editor, community feedback tools, membership monetization for writers based on reading time) are present. The platform is for video content, not text-based content.

[Product] vs Competitor B - which one should I choose?
Reddit·confused_buyer·Oct 14·+67
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.
Why we migrated away from [Product]
Hacker News·cto_mike·Oct 11·+234
The breaking point was when they changed their API without notice. We lost 3 days of productivity. Solution C has been rock solid for us since we switched.
