Just trying to check and make sure I never missed any. Is it just writefreely and plume right now?

Lemmy absolutely could, but it shouldn't. It's a far better link aggregator than it will ever be a blog platform,

but it shouldn’t

I'm curious about why you think this relatively strongly (if you don't mind my asking)?

I'm a big fan of tools made for purpose. Lemmy has some fantastic features and continues to improve, but it was never designed as a blogging platform. Even when I duplicate self text posts, it doesn't merge. In the timeline. I like Lemmy and want to see it succeed. Though that's not easy with the ML administration team going rogue or the overt centralization fostered on world, but neither of those are software issues.

That's kinda the beauty of open source though. The clients can manage this function. And they do.
