Federated Fanfiction Platform? (lemmy.one)

Is there a Fediverse option for hosting fanfiction, or maybe web novels/serials/etc? Like an AO3 alternative, basically. I looked around but couldn't find one, the closest thing that kinda works are the blogging platforms like writefreely. If there isn't, do you think fanfiction would be a good candidate for federation?

No federated alternative as of yet. It's one of the platform types that the fediverse is lacking.

Dreamwidth (which is not a platform to host fanfiction, but rather to discuss it, share recs, etc) has had federation proposals, but nothing has come out of them.

WriteFreely is in the fediverse, but it's more of a blog platform the style of blogger, wordpress, or medium.
