Some relevant notes/links shared by the team:

• Use the right tool for the right job. While there are some community features built into SharePoint, the ideal solution is Viva Engage (formerly Yammer).
• Viva Engage has deep integration with both SharePoint and Outlook. Check out this Microsoft support article: Use a Viva Engage web part in SharePoint Online [https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/use-a-viva-engage-web-part-in-sharepoint-online-a53cfa0c-3d09-42c8-a286-1038a81c59da]
