StrypeyHey fediverse tech experts, let's say I wanted to have an activist news website that featured a;
* blog operated by a specific group of people. Syndicating stories and accepting replies over both ActivityPub and ATProto
* newswire that worked like an open Lemmy community, so people can add a story to the newswire just by @mentioning it
* calendar of events that worked like a Mobilizon group
Is there any combo of existing tech I could use to put this together?

Piefed is like Lemmy (communities) but also includes event functionality.
For a blog you can create a community that only moderators can post in.
Piefed users can be followed from Mastodon.

What about the ATProto support? At least for the blog and the events calendar, which would only be for public events.
@strypey@mastodon.nzoss.nz I think you might be asking for a few too many features which end up excluding every software.
Just asking for ATProto support means your only option left is WAFRN, which doesn’t meet your other criteria.
Might be you’ll have to mix and match software that all speak ActivityPub?

Then there's some dev to be done to strap together a package that covers this use case. Before PieFed having both blogs and events would have required 2 apps (or a CMS with at least 2 plugins, for AP support and events calendar).
Again, I find myself thinking about reimplementing from scratch using Hypermedia-Driven Architecture ...
I don’t know of any platform which has those features plus AP plus ATProto.
@strypey@mastodon.nzoss.nz This sounds like what we’re doing for publications like Jacobin DE and Totnes Pulse, as a cooperative effort that brings together @bonfire@bonfire.cafe, @lauti@bonfire.cafe for events, and @newsmast@newsmast.social for a mobile app, and integration with their existing Ghost and Wordpress sites/blogs.
On desktops it would appear as a 3-column layout with a full width masthead and basic links. On mobiles, I guess tabs to switch between the 3, where the events calendar is the default when visiting the site, but visitors can set either the blog or newswire as the default.
