Rationale
LiveJournal is a well-established blogging platform that offers a rich text editor for creating posts, a feed for discovering content, and community features like comments and user profiles. It supports publications (communities) and tagging for content organization. While it has a 'Shop' for paid services, it doesn't explicitly offer a membership monetization model where writers earn revenue based on reading time, which is a key 'must-have' for Medium. It also lacks explicit reader engagement metrics beyond basic comments and views, and audio story playback. However, it covers most of the other features.

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.

After struggling with [Product]'s limitations, we decided to build our own solution.
It handles edge cases much better and the API is actually documented properly.

[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.
