Ghost Foundation
It is well suited for distributed writing and publishing with a subscription component.and well suited for simultaneous deployment to email and the web.
Its pricing for a very small group (3 or more) tends to the expensive and login across multiple different devices can be aggravating.

Storyblok
It's suitable if you want a custom website and have a development team dedicated to coding sections, as well as a content/marketing team dedicated to building the pages using those sections. It's not appropriate for an entrepreneur who's just getting started and doesn't have enough resources/team members.

I think it's really good and easy to get the hang of, but I'm sure there's still room for improvement. It definitely took me a bit to get used to.

Ghost Foundation
It is simpler, headless, faster than WordPress. The core functionality is focused on subscription membership which is a bloated add on for WordPress. The simplicity has a cost as WordPress, while complicated, offers more expansion opportunities.
