I don’t know how important that is or if that has to be related to this feature request at all. You can refer to an activitypub handle on a site without the expectation that the activity plugin is installed.

There are alot of formatting issues with federated posts. Unfortunately, not all Discourse markdown is supported an comes across looking pretty garbled. This I think could be handled by the plugin.
