Fediverse blogging options (lemm.ee)

I'm thinking of starting a blog to document a new project, having not blogged at all in probably about ten years at this point.

Was hoping someone who has already researched this stuff might be able to save me some time and give a tldr of the Fediverse-friendly platform options and their various pros and cons?

I know obviously WordPress has ActivityPub now, but am not sure exactly how well it works or how integrated it really is. Then there's something called WriteFreely? Any others? Which do you prefer and why?

Really appreciate any pointers on this, and if this thread doesn't turn up anything useful I promise to come back and do my own writeup after finding out the answers by myself.

Cheers!

could be kind of annoying to export and backup.

True that. Altho, if I were doing a blog, it'd be from stuff I wrote and then posted. (As for comments, how many are worth saving? Present company excepted of course.)

I thought about it too, but I really like HTML and CSS, and prefer a place I can use them. (I'd get interested if I could put anything I want inside a styled ..., but sadly few places accomodate that. What they're worried about I'm uncertain. I'm HOPING that such sites will arise in the Fediverse.)
