Is there not federated WordPress?
Edit: Okay its done, not pretty but I like it and it will do for now. I mostly want it as a guide to send people to my different social media sites and my Payreon where I have decided to post the webcomic.
But if you want to check it out its www.fredselfish.com
And added bonus here a story I have written today that I wanted to share.

An RSS file is a plain text, computer readable file that you add to your website, containing a list of all recent posts that you want to promote.
Anytime I add a post to my blog, I update my RSS file. (Well, a piece of automation does, I could hand edit it, but I’m lla lazy programmer.) Then a service I registered with shares any new posts (posts with today’s date) to services line Mastodon or Lemmy through bot accounts that I set up.
People can also subscribe directly to the RSS feed (file), using various news reading apps. (But I think following RSS through Mastodon and Lemmy bots is becoming more popular, lately?)
You can learn a lot more about the RSS through the RSS Specification, but you may not need to.
I find that WordPress and other blog solutions mostly just make good default assumptions whenever I have turned on the RSS feature or plugin.
Going have to give WordPress a try again been few years so I will see.
