How do you actually find fediverse bloggers (lemm.ee)

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?

Oh cool!! Yeah I definitely tried it on a few silly ones just because lol. Now somebody's just gotta try Sharkey, Misskey, MBin, uh... GoToSocial. Probably a bunch more that I don't know about. ActivityPub is so neat!
