Hi! I'm looking to publish a blog that can be discovered through interactions on the fediverse, and potentially displays replies as comments. I had set up WriteFreely and, though it is missing the replies feature, it seemed pretty well-made. However, when I tried to publish my post, pressing "Move to [blog name]" made it disappear. It's still in the stats page but clicking on it shows "This page is missing." It seems really buggy, hasn't had a release in almost a year, and my post would be lost if I hadn't made a backup. Are there any other good options for publishing a blog?

Everyone seems to be micro blogging there own stuff. There are probably people reading various things, but nobody cares enough to respond. I think Twitter fed on drama which got people upset enough to respond. I think Mastodon is still sorting itself out. People will catch on eventually to how it all works.

Yes, it's like people are interested in getting their word out rather than reading other people's stuff. Still I like that I have a chronological feed which I tweak slightly by muting users whose content I don't care for and the best thing is that I can browse by hashtags. Without this I wouldn't have got interested in Mastodon in the first place.
