renchap@oisaur.com 044f specifies the use of a link to the quoted post as fallback, hidden behind
.quote-inline.Right now Mastodon puts this top of post, and this interferes with title generation logic on NodeBB. Essentially the URL becomes the title, which is not ideal.
Any chance the class name could be upgraded to a MUST so I can code against it? Potentially other implementors could use different class names.

@renchap @julian I didn't want to make it a MUST in the FEP because there are lots of reasons you may want to do the fallback differently (and we only include it if it's not already in the post: the URL could conceivably be part of the message)
as for Mastodon, there are technical reasons why we decided to put it on top, but Mastodon-inserted fallback will always use
quote-inline. This is also consistent with what another implementation did (can't remember which one off the top of my head) -

Time will tell as to whether everyone will end up aligning on quote-inline anyway.

@sk@utsukta.org mentioned in another thread that the way Hubzilla and threadiverse software handle group discussions is incompatible.
It got me thinking about whether that is true. At its core both FEPs (171b and 1b12, respectively) rely on a central "distributor" node to send activities to recipients.
@silverpill@mitra.social did further comparisons in thr text of 171b itself:
> Announce activity is used instead of Add. Conversation and related activities are synchronized between participants, but conversation backfilling mechanism is not specified.
The questions here are:
If threadiverse software federated out an Add in addition to Announce, would that satisfy basic synchronization (not backfill) requirements laid out by 171b? Is there any reason why Announce could not be used to facilitate private federated group discussions as well? Assuming visibility maintains scoped to addresses, I don't see any immediate reason why not...

I'm playing around with Offer activities in Fedify. The AP Vocab provides this, easy peasy.
✅ Alice OFFERS Book to Bob
✅ Bob ACCEPTS Alice's OFFEROr:
✅ Bob OFFERS Rotten Tomato to Alice
❌ Alice REJECTS Bob's OFFER----------------
But I'm not clear if this is right:
❓Alice ANNOUNCES OFFER of Labubu to Followers?
❓Bob OFFERS $10 for Labubu to Alice?
❓ Alice ACCEPTS Bob's OFFER of $10 for Labubu?
✅ Alice OFFERS Labubu to Bob
✅ Bob ACCEPTS Labubu

Your Home Feed is the inbox of an ActivityPub actor — in particular YOUR ActivityPub actor.
There could be an actor for each hash-tag, too.
You could even do Del.icio.us like things — and have actors for intersections of hash-tags, too.
These hash-tag actors' inboxes would need to be readable by anyone.
...
This could be a more ActivityPub like API alternative to Mastodon's "GET /API/v1/tags/{name}" API.

@hongminhee How hard would it be for a future version of ActivityPub to simply back out JSON-LD support? Would there be a downside to this?
-
@julian Yes, POST to personal inbox sends a 404, POST to group inbox sends a 202 (I guess group inbox is how we communicate now).
-
@silverpill@mitra.social POSTing that inbox sends a 404?
-
@julian @liaizon https://activitypub.space/uid/1/inbox still returns 404. Perhaps group's inbox is working?
UPD: yes https://activitypub.space/category/5/inbox returns 202
