Don't know if we already have this but if not, this could be a new breath for running away from Google's polluted, hard to find any real useful stuff SEO World. With Kagi's optimization for activity pub, it's easier to find content within the Federation. With a blog system that supports activity pub, people can get interaction from Mastodon, Lemmy, PeerTube etc. And the best part is, you can do all these stuff with your self-hosted sites.

If we already have this, please let me know.

While the Lemmy micro blog idea sounds genius, I just wanted to echo my appreciation for write freely.

It's great for blogging especially if you're a writer. For the short time I used it, only felt like a Fediverse versions of Ghost CMS. At the time it had a bit less formatting features but nothing you couldn't work around with photos.

It'd make a great blog endpoint as a supplement for a traditional website.

Oh for sure. Using lemmy is definitely a quick and dirty option that happens to illustrate the power that the reddit platform structure can have.

Interestingly, I suspect it wouldn't be too much work to expand on the features already in lemmy to turn it into a true blogging platform. Presuming that its promise of being lean in terms of required resources (written in rust and all of that), it might have something going for it.
