I take the host my own instance path. It’s safer and more stable than relying on a third party.

Good question.
-Hubzilla: https://hubzilla.org/page/hubzilla/discover -Streams: https://codeberg.org/streams/streams -Friendica: https://friendi.ca/
Yep. I always use a sub domain for Fediverse applications. It’s just easier to migrate when something better suited to your needs comes along.
For long form content, Hubzilla, Streams, or Friendica all allow long posts. For photos, Pixelfed seems to be the popular option. From a ActivityPub enabled blog standpoint, try WriteFreely.
I think Calckey can also do long form posts, and has a lot of other features.
p.s. If I export my content from Mastodon, shut down the instance, then bring up an instance of Calckey with the same domain/username, am I going to break things?
I think you’d need to use a different domain name. This might help, https://calckey.org/docs/en/account-migration/
Give Hubzilla a try. Make sure to activate the PubCrawl addon for ActivityPub support. https://hubzilla.org/page/hubzilla/discover
Run your own instance. It’s the only way you’ll be able to set your own policies. Otherwise you’re subject to policies of the instance you’re on and those policies may change at any time.
