"Critical concept: IRIs are opaque identifiers. You cannot infer meaning from the string pattern — only by dereferencing and inspecting the data." [1] This applies to URIs too. Sadly, almost no #ActivityPub implementations use this principle. Multi-tenant servers and simple account portability (with personal domains) would be relatively easy if they did.🙄 It is what it is...

@Sascha No code. There are a few bookmark AP platforms that might fit the bill with a different UI layout.

@squeakypancakes Slop in, slop out.
At some point, people stop posting it's just going to be AI consuming AI.
