I do not see a reader yet that can read a GeoJSON file in S3. Rather than needing to download it via the S3 transformer.

We would like to use S3 as a spatial data hub so it can be used by many tools.

You can get the safe.s3connector from the FME Hub, that'll let you connect to an S3 bucket in any reader (or writer)

Just select "Select File From Web" when browsing for source data and then you'll get a list with various online sources, the bottom one being "FME Hub Web File Systems" where you can select the S3 one.

Then connect to AWS using your credentials (or a web connection) and navigate to the required bucket:
