What is the process to follow a federated account?

No problem.
In my head I was thinking of a Federated account like a WordPress blog that has ActivityPub installed and confirmed working. Everyone in the Fediverse can see it, but having it followed and posted in Forum puts it there in front of the Community for a more direct conversation.
I am gonna start installing and trying to figure out ActivityPub into my Drupal projects even if I am not thrilled with my previous dealings with that module.
It is an major paradigm shift for a lot of folk.
I haven't had much of an issue, but I also have been sort of creating Federated Communities and I end up with Accounts on all of them due to being the Admin.
But when I am just on my Mastodon personal instance it's so freaking nice not to have to worry about.
No, but it is interesting.
Honestly I sort of want to keep Comments and community a little seperate. Thought being able to just federate content would be simpler in a way.
Which seems the best way. I really don't want more people than needed in the CMS. Especially when it's just to comment on specific articles. This way the conversation can take place in the forums as well as be federated.
Now the trick is figuring out how to even do such a thing.

Thanks, tells me what I needed to know. Even on Mastodon I only really use Hashtags on posts and not on replies so that tracks for personal usage.
