Federation:

You can't yet follow other users from your WriteFreely account.
People from other places in the Fediverse can follow you and they will see your new posts in their timeline.
However they will only see the headline and a link to the blog entry and comments under that post won't show up under the blog entry.

Media Uploads:

You can't upload media directly to WriteFreely, so you have to embed pictures and videos from other sites.
You can for example upload your pictures to a Pixelfed and your videos to a PeerTube account.
