I am thinking about setting up a simple blog on a spare Raspberry Pi using YunoHost. I want it to be federated (of course), and it looks like my only choices are WordPress or Ghost. Are there any other lightweight CMS out there that are federated that appear on this list? Thanks.

    @5teverin0 Writefreely might be a good option, it’s built around being federated. It’s in the social media category instead of the publishing category, but it’s intended for blogs instead of microblogs.

      I get that blog is Tumblr-like and microblog is Twitter-like, but what are the actual differences?

      Oh, excellent! I originally started out trying to install WriteFreely with Ngnx, but kept running into problems, so I gave up. Never thought to look in that category - thanks!

    Federation protocol is pretty simple and coding it could be a fun project for someone. Do you have software that you’d like to use? It seems like a good companion to a static site generator.

    I’m not seeing WriteFreely in that list so maybe won’t help you, but it’s a lot more activitypub-native than WP or Ghost is, so might be what you’re after even if the install won’t be one-click in whatever you’re using.
