Textpattern CMS is an open-source content management system. It offers a rich text editor with support for Textile and Markdown, and allows for community feedback through comments and forums. It also supports user profiles and a tagging system for content organization. While it is a publishing platform, it lacks explicit features for monetization models like membership subscriptions or a built-in recommendation engine for content distribution, which are core to the 'Medium' concept.
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.
