To elaborate, there are a lot of different types of social media already on the fediverse such as microblogs, regular blogs, image sharing, link sharing and video sharing.
Personally, I'd love to see a gaming-focused social media platform on the fediverse.

You have seen writefreely and plume?Wish it was possible to use existing Hugo / Eleventy blog and somehow add federation to it. It feels like using a whole separate one makes it less worthwhile (and less customizable)
What would you expect the federation part would do? If it's just posting to Mastodon an rss bot will do.
I don't have a mastodon account, and making a mastodon account or instance for this purpose is not the experience I would like. But I understand this is the path of least resistance at the moment, but I wish there was some sort of service that can publish my blog to the fediverse like WriteFreely and Plume do.
And that's what @helge has created with his project https://codeberg.org/helge/longhorn built upon #bovine
I haven't tried it yet, but it seems promising, just like bovine itself.
@cyclohexane
Longhorn does even more. If you just want to post blog posts automatically, there is an rss service for that. It monitors your blogs rss feed and posts an announcement/full article on the fediverse.Let me see where I stored a bookmark....

Found it, it's https://mastofeed.org/
(thanks to @redegelde for bringing that one up)Beware of the warnings at https://www.jessesquires.com/blog/2022/12/15/rss-to-mastodon/ about said service! I couldn't find any details about who you're giving permissions to.
Given scripts/webhook tricks are probably more than enough if you're into a little digital tinkering
