Divi vs. Medium

Divi is great if you build multiple websites for clients; however, I'm not sure it is cost-effective if you only make a single site.

If you are vanity publishing and just want to see your stuff on the web, it is very, VERY easy to get involved with. Of course, your writing is not likely to stand out if you don't have a clear plan. The more I use it, the more I like it. The user interface is extremely well-done. I kinda wish my WordPress-based blogs had editors that were that easy to use.

• Front end builder easy to design
• Exportable and importable layouts and templates
• Integration with wordpress and many plugins
• Individual template builder to apply to certain post types
• Add on cloud to store and sync your own designs, code snippets
• Can create your own api licenses for different websites

Incentivized

• Content categorization and grouping.
• The option to make some money from sharing your passion and teaching.
• Moderating content manually to not promote AI-generated content and boosting very authentic and impactful posts.

• The load time of the builder could be faster. On some websites it takes a long time to load, and may crash the page. (I believe they've said they're working on this stability issue.)
• Warnings on updates if they're difficult for some sites to run. I have one website that has crashed more than once from Divi's theme updates. I always back it up before the update so I restore the site, but this is still a bit of an inconvenience.
• Integrated (or more clearly marked) tutorials within the builder. I migrate site maintenance and ownership to clients after the site is complete and some could use refreshers within the builder on what happens where i.e. the difference between a section, row, module.

• The payment wall can be confusing.
• Hard to get traction if you're trying to go viral with an article.
• Sometimes content gets buried too easily.

Divi has everything you need to build a great website. And they have prompt support, their support staff is well qualified and they help you quickly solve if you encounter any issue. They also help you with CSS, if you are trying to achieve something that's "non standard" in Divi.

By comparison, most online editors are clunky. The Medium editor is amazingly powerful and still easy to use.

Medium is supported across android, iOS and the web. While it may not have all the languages supported, English is certainly an option and with a pricing model that ranges from free to $5 for a subscription, you can't go wrong whether you're a small or large business. Everything is hosted in the cloud so it is very accessible

Medium is dirt easy to use. The hard part is figuring out if it is worth the effort to include it as part of our content-marketing strategy.

Divi price is superior and the infinite sites feature got me. Thrive was good for me at some point, but they got stuck in their layout options. Even i liked the Thrive form builder, in general Divi gave me more options to build my websites and build my landing pages. If they work on their interaction with other apps like Mailchimp or Hubspot, for example, or make the tool even more intuitive, i would give them 10 in everything.

There are a handful of other blogging platforms available. The biggest difference between Medium and others is how streamlined it is. It's straight to the point and is excellent at showing related content, be it your own or another users. There's no new design to navigate between posts, everything is where you expect it to be letting you focus on the post.
