Solution:
As you may already aware that there is no such native feature available to track such activity.

You will require to build such feature on your own that may require custom programming.

I suggest you should try to search for plugin that serve your purpose, for example: https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-simple-rss/

I am working on improving my signed-in experience and want the users to see activity on the platform to increase engagement.

I am using a lot of custom post types that result in meaningful updates for the user. Some custom post types
1) Project prompts
2) Project submissions
3) Request review
4) Receive review
5) Request endorsement
6) Receive endorsement

I want to show a feed of user activity for these custom post types. For instance, if someone creates a new project prompt or submits a new project, users should be able to see -- "a new project prompt was created" or " User X just submitted a project".

The notifications should also link to the user or to the custom post, depending on my choice.

I tried to use RSS feed but it serves a different purpose and has too minimal a UI.

Can this be done using Toolset?
