Feeds are a combination of communities into one, like multireddit or mastodon tags.

    For the federating its a new kind of AP actor. I’ll be putting in a FEP for it in the near future, but its basically a “Group” that only cares about the “Following” collection.

    You can see example json for the AP interactions here: https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/src/branch/main/docs/activitypub_examples/feeds

    The AP interactions for a Feed are:

    • Send a Follow request for a Feed
    • Accept a Follow request (this is automatic for public feeds)
    • Reject a Follow request (this is automatic for private feeds)
    • Announce an Add of a Community to a Feed
    • Announce a Remove of a Community from a Feed
    • Send a Delete of a Feed to subscribers

      Hmm so the Feed actor mainly consists of a following collection and uses Add/Remove activities. This really sounds like it should be a Collection and not an actor.
