Like jaryd said, it's open source, which makes the biggest difference: Ghost can be hosted on your own server where Medium can only be used on Medium's servers.

Which is a huge deal for some people (myself included). I don't really trust other services to remain around, especially when doing so might put my content at risk. I'd much rather be in control of where my content's hosted, even if it means I need do some of the more fidly management and setup things.
