Best Fediverse platforms to do it all right this time (lemmy.today)

Y'all, I'm a big fan of Lemmy, and looking to get out of the walled gardens and into the fediverse as much as I can.

I'm wondering about a few things, so let me know before I go signing up for everything if I'm doing this right or what.

I'm looking for some sort of blog/html hosting site, and I think that Hubzilla is appropriate for this, but I'm not sure. Primarily, I just want some space for some webgames and assets. Nothing crazy. That might also be Codeberg (OSS, not federated AFAIK), but I'm not sure about Hubzilla since it seems to do everything. Federating from Wordpress won't work because they seem to have their direct HTML editing access locked down to the point that it's not what I need.

I understand that pixelfed is the IG parallel (I don't use IG more than seeing what my spouse and 1 friend sends me), but are there multiple options for FB replacement? Or just Friendica? I genuinely don't think I'll have any IRL friends on Friendica if I go look, but I'm not going to have to provide an ID. But hey, there's always my 500th overlapping Linux enthusiast group to join.

Thanks in advance - all advice appreciated!

For an alternative to Mastodon, and maybe facebook, i recommand iceshrimp. It's a misskey fork with markdown, 3000 chars, emojis reaction, list, gallery management...

Two alternatives to lemmy. They have lot interresting features : mbin and piefed.

As for pixelfed, lot users reported me some bug. I have heard of vernissage but i haven't tested them.
