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?

Sharkey seems to support hosting blogs (pages) directly on the platform itself.

Anyone had luck installing it recentlly? It worked one day and then some update got pushed (not to misskey/sharkey but something they depend on) and now I can't install it. I'm pretty sure its not exclusive to sharkey or my vps, saw people talking about it for unrelated stuff.
