It sounds like what you want is https://writefreely.org/ https://writefreely.org/ ? they have both a hosted option and a self-hostable open source version. The missing part is the discoverability that Medium had and that Able and dev.to are working towards, so I don't think it's totally comparable. Actually, saying that now, I'd love it if it even went one way--so I could choose to post my article on my write freely blog, but also syndicate it out to Able. (even if I didn't use the Able editor to publish out to ActivityPub and Able to host all the APIs for that) Might be simpler.
