Help with potential fanfiction.lol federation?

I recommended the Fediverse to Brennan Kenneth Brown (the creator and developer of fanfiction.lol: https://fanfiction.lol/, which is an alternative to Ao3, but that uses the same OTW software: https://github.com/otwcode/otwarchive/).
And he told me to go ahead and implement, as well as create a pull request.
The issue is: I know almost NOTHING about the technical side of The Fediverse (lol).

I may be misjudging what's going on here but to me it seems like he's saying that he has other priorities and this is likely a non trivial issue to solve.
Unless you are willing to hire a skilled developer who is familiar with the codebase I doubt somebody will implement this just out of sheer kindness.

The only pointer I can give, is that you would probably want to use ActivityPub for the federation protocol, and you could potentially look at Mastodon's implementation of that, since it's also implemented in Ruby On Rails.
Mind that there can be differences in how the federation should work, for example Mastodon doesn't have post titles, which you would presumably want on a fan fiction site...

Federation uses the ActivityPub protocol, start with their documentation

It's a longer version of the classic "patches welcome"

It might be a bit much for a beginner but for someone with some programming basics it could be a decent way to learn more. It's all back end stuff, so not much browser madness. Rails has its learning curve but has tons of convenience features. The part I have trouble understanding is why anyone would want this. Say federation appears. Then what? Anyway, OP, if you take this on, I can probably give a bit of technical advice if you want it.

It would help if you starting writing down what exactly you expect to be federated, which problems you think could be face (moderation?), and how you think it could be resolved.
I don't know fanfiction.lol so it's not possible for me to have a good opinion on what should be federated and what that would even look like.

Someone who only has programming basics is a beginner. ActivityPub is not a simple spec to implement.
