I'm looking for a way to sort of blog on Lemmy. On Reddit I could do it by posting to my own profile (note: not editing my own profile, rather literally creating a post and assigning it to my profile). I doubt anyone ever read them, but they were just stuff about what I was doing that didn't really belong in any particular subreddit.

For example, I want to write about my take on the different Fediverse iterations I've set up, on what works and what doesn't. I could post that to a Technology community, I suppose, but I don't think it really belongs there. This is more of a status report on my thoughts than anything else.

I've heard that kbin allows microblogging, but kbin is INCREDIBLY laggy so far. I'm more comfortable here. So...is it possible?

Follow-up, Bookwyrm allows you to post "Direct Messages" which pretty much seem to be exactly what I was looking for. Except I think they might be private only, i.e. only I can see them?

Still waiting for kbin to be usable so I can see if something there would work.

Maybe Squabbles? Seems to be kind of a hybrid Twitter/reddit thing with profiles and whatnot. Still part of the Fediverse, so you can continue to post wherever, I think.
