Federation support for Discourse

If it’s not significantly more work up front, also federating out post edits as Update Activities would be valuable. If it’s one of those things that can be contributed post-MVP, then a design that reasonably accommodates adding that later would be great.

For what it’s worth, I would set the delay low on my instance(s). I would not plan to use it to avoid federating spam posts, because it would reasonably likely be a signal that brings a mod from their fediverse feed into our Discourse to take action. I have chat_integration_delay_seconds set to 20 for quick typo edits, and would expect to do something similar here. At the very least, that setting sets a precedent for such a delay. :relaxed:
