Is there a "macroblogging" platform on the Fediverse? (lemmy.ml)

There seems to be a lot of microblogging going around, but I want a place to put my writings that are much bigger. I know that having my own website is also an option, but I'm finding filtering ethical hosting providers and website builders to be a lot more difficult than I thought it would be, and I'm afraid that even if I find them, it's going to be too expensive.

?

Wordpress the software has one of the best extension frameworks of anything I'm aware of. It's old, but it's also well-structured, mature, and has a ton of support. There's a reason it got ActivityPub support so early (in comparison to other similar outside-the-Fediverse platforms).

The leader of the company behind it seems to have lost his mind, but that's not anything against the software. Maybe don't get hosting through Automattic. The software as far as I know is still pretty good.
