Choose Medium or Sanity?
Why choose Medium?
Medium is a great choice for individual bloggers looking for a user-friendly platform focused on writing and publishing. However, its lack of customization and control may be limiting for larger teams or organizations. It also does not offer a headless blog mode and has limited customization options to its design.
Why choose Sanity?
Sanity is a great choice for developers who want to build a fully customizable CMS with a strong focus on content modeling and flexibility. Expect a steep learning curve and a high level of technical expertise.
