Substack aligns very closely with the description of Medium. It provides a platform for writers and creators to publish content (including newsletters, blog posts, and podcasts) and monetize their work through subscriptions. It offers a rich text editor, distribution through email newsletters and the Substack platform itself, and tools for community engagement. The platform also supports user profiles and following, as well as categorization of content through tags and topics.
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.
Check it out at our site.
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.
