I’m starting to get in to self hosting and am looking at self-hosted blog solutions. It looks like WriteFreely is the main fediverse blog platform, with Plume as second though I don’t see it used much.
But that got me thinking that it’d be good to follow federated blogs and have some long form reading that I follow, like we did back when RSS was the main way of doing things.
But how do I actually find bloggers? It looks like WriteFreely can federate with Mastodon, but it doesn’t look like there’s a federated blogging platform like lemmy or mastodon. Is this correct? Where I can I go (other than Medium) to find blogs and bloggers in the fediverse?
For microblogging, platforms like Mastodon with large instances. For long form blogging, there aren’t any major platforms or instances yet. Discovery happens the old fashioned way with links.
