A reasonable ActivityPub / ActivityStreams API to schedule something to be posted in the future might be — to HTTP POST something to an account's outbox with the `published` field set to a date-time in the future.

@reiver@mastodon.social yes, although this is not well supported.
I accidentally federated out a note with a timestamp in the future and it caused Lemmy to pin my note to the top of the recent posts list
-
@reiver does the server in your scenario disseminate the activity to the rest of the fediverse at the published date, or upon receiving it?
-
It tries to do it on the published date-time.
-
@reiver that seems to involve a lot of complexity for a a piece of software that theoretically should be quite simple. I don't think I'd implement that for my code.
-
@mariusor@metalhead.club I realized after I replied that I think @reiver@mastodon.social was talking about C2S?
Definitely on S2S that's a no-go. There aren't enough guarantees.
