I started https://kbin.social/m/drupal yesterday after discovering that Kbin is also a PHP/Symfony based project. There is a lot of ActivityPub work being done in Drupal right now including https://www.drupal.org/project/activitypub. I'm not an ActivityPub or Fediverse expert, but I did get excited about the possibility of the Drupal community replacing some of our corporately owned channels like Stack Overflow and Slack with a Kbin instance that replaces the groups.drupal.org. That site is still running on Drupal 7. Drupal 7 just got its fourth (and final?) EoL extension until January 2025. This is a great time to look at an "off the island" solution like Kbin.
I have a few questions, but I'm not even sure where to ask them.
I found m/kbin and m/kbinDevlog, m/kbinDesign, but I think my questions are more about policy on this specific kbin instance. If I'm asking these questions in the wrong place, please feel free to redirect me.

Drupal currently maintains a feed of Drupal related blog posts that is aggregated at https://www.drupal.org/planet. I've been manually posting these to m/drupal, but I'd like to automate this. After looking at https://docs.kbin.pub/, it's my understanding is that kbin.social doesn't support posting through a API, but there are other ways to post with a bot. Is that allowed?

Are there any examples of a Magazine or Kbin instance being run as a Stack Exchange-like QA site?
