There’s WriteFreely for example. There’s also Plume, but looks like it’s not actively maintained anymore.

I wanted to try WriteFreely, but their federation seems to be broken according to this ticket. And the fediverse observer shows 0 WriteFreely comments since January 2025.

I’m not sure what version they’re running on their flagship but I last posted from there on March 20th and my blog federated to Mastodon.
More for the OP but if you’re looking for a blog with a comment section, I wouldn’t recommend WriteFreely at present. Customization is also unnecessarily painful.
It does federate. Social features are rudimentary. I end up using my existing microblogs to promote the posts anyway.
I knew all that going in and chose it anyway. It’s not for everyone but it does what I need it to at a price I’m fine with.

For me federation is working to mastodon, but I don’t think comments are really out yet, but I use cactus comments for it, but that doesn’t federate to mastodon, it federates to matrix. It also requires a matrix server, which was a total pita to set up.
