Given the gaining momemntum around publishing in ActivityPub (Mastodon / Wordpress and now Threads) it might be worth some discovery on possible intergrations. Maybe not running a full server but being able to post council controlled social feeds based on content?

News and service status would be good candidates.

The challenge for my sites is and remains https://www.drupal.org/project/activitypub/issues/3272173 which was just too much work to do as a side issue. It's still active as https://www.drupal.org/project/activitypub/issues/3318782 I don't know about sites others have but it's usually the 'site' itself or a 'group' or some other 'entity' that is represented on the site and controlled by users, rather than user accounts that want to appear in the fediverse for the site.

Not just LGD challenge either; but I've been in the code, and it's non-trivial because of the way it was baked the first time.
