Rationale
Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) is a self-publishing platform that allows authors to publish eBooks and print books. While it doesn't offer a rich text editor in the same way Medium does (it's more about uploading formatted manuscripts), it does provide tools for authors to earn royalties (membership-monetization) and offers reports on sales and pages read (reader-engagement-metrics). It also supports author pages (user-profiles-and-following), categories/genres (tags-and-topics), and marketing tools including email newsletter integration and social sharing. The platform is primarily for publishing and distribution, and while it has a search function for books, it doesn't have a dynamic recommendation engine like Medium's content feed.

[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.
