Yeah, it should be an ID on the post imo, not a bool on the comment. Other users (bar mods) shouldn't be able to edit other people's data.
Ideologically, you're right.
But since announcing that feature I also started, finished & announced another major one and am now eying up the next one.
Onwards!

There's also the issue that the comment could be on a service that doesn't support this (which is all of them bar Piefed), so this won't be set. At least if this was on the post, it's within your remit and can therefore control for it.

PieFed v1.4 will have Stack Overflow-like functionality: the person who posted a question will be able to choose which of the replies are the answer, by clicking the green tick icon in the bottom left. Chosen answer(s) then have a highlight and a green tick at the top of them.
This is off by default - communities have a checkbox on them that needs to be toggled to turn it on. So only some communities will have it.
To Lemmy instances, these questions and answers will look just like normal posts and comments, without the highlight and tick. So people using Lemmy will be able to contribute.
Designating which comment is an answer involves federating a new Activity:
{ "id": "https://piefed.social/activities/answer/hgb4iO4b8UAFRTn", "type": "ChooseAnswer", "actor": "https://piefed.socialz/u/rimu", "object": "https://piefed.ngrok.app/comment/224", "@context": ["https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams", "https://w3id.org/security/v1"], "audience": "https://crust.piefed.social/c/linux_questions", "to": ["https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Public"], "cc": ["https://crust.piefed.social/c/linux_questions"] }hopefully search engines will actually index it

Duplicate question, this was answered here [15 years ago, outdated and completely different stack] closing
But seriously neat though lol
/me searches a problem, finally finding someone asking the exact question I have.
Page: Can't you idiots search for anything, 2 seconds searching would have found the answer. -

Please specify a scope.

This is such a neat idea! 💡

Mixed bag
What the engines index, the LLMs ingest

I'd like to see the
answerproperty on the thread containing the ID of the marked answer. Any chance that this would be possible? -

answerbe an ID also works with existing implementations because it's still truthy...Although I think "truthy" is a purely js concept lol

Speak for yourself about the future, for me it is already here in the present! 🤩

Why bother posting solutions if no one's going to read them because they are undiscoverable

That's pretty much what happens with federated instances blocking each other. I wouldn't use that.

@julian hahahahaha

@julian @rimu @dessalines @nutomic we could have it in Lemmy as well ❤️

rimu@piefed.social when the question is federated outward, is it of type of question? 😛

What's the secret to Rimu's speed? Piefed is young, so any accumulated technical debt doesn't interfere with new functionality...
Yet...
Sorry rimu@piefed.social, that time will come for you 😂

Oh, a * peek * at piefed. I thought it was going to be some doom and gloom about user count peaking. It’s actually just an introspective.

Paige and Victor get into the weeds with Rimu the creator of Piefed. What is the secret to Piefed's rapid development and what direction is is Piefed rapidly developing?
