Is there not federated WordPress?
Edit: Okay its done, not pretty but I like it and it will do for now. I mostly want it as a guide to send people to my different social media sites and my Payreon where I have decided to post the webcomic.
But if you want to check it out its www.fredselfish.com
And added bonus here a story I have written today that I wanted to share.

Neither really did some coding in the past but nothing major. I can do basic Html and messed around with python.
Learn the basics of WordPress first then check out Bricks Builder. It’s not free but the best in it’s class. If you aren’t doing this professionally you’ll experience a steep learning curve but once you master it, you can build pretty much anything you want extremely fast.
If you really want to build it in HTML and CSS you’d have to build your own theme.
Thanks for resources and I will take a look, but probably won’t use WordPress in the end. We will see.
