Starter Kits are probably the most complex federated feature I've implemented so far, and I've already implemented:

- Status Updates (with history changelogs)
- Account migration
- QuotePosts
- Ephemeral Stories (with bearcaps, reactions, replies and views)

I love the challenge though, and really appreciate all the hard work @daveDavid Roetzel and @Mastodon put into the Featured Collections FEP.

I think our community will make Starter Kits the next big discovery tool, and I can't wait to make this happen!
