Rationale

Fable is a social app for bookworms and bingewatchers, which aligns well with the concept of an online publishing platform focused on community and content. While it doesn't explicitly offer a 'rich text editor' for content creation in the same vein as Medium, it provides extensive features for content consumption, discussion, and organization. It has strong community features, personalized recommendations, and tracking tools for reading habits, which are core to the 'Medium' concept. The platform also supports user profiles, tags, and social sharing, further reinforcing the match. The absence of a clear monetization model for writers (like 'membership monetization') and a direct content creation tool for long-form articles are the main differentiators.
