We seriously need to talk about deletion not being real in the fedi.
Some instances never erase your toots when you delete them.

@maikel The two uncomfortable truths of the internet, since the '90s:
- You can never reliably publish something.
- You can never reliably delete something once it's published.

maikel@vmst.io what is there to talk about? ActivityPub is a decentralized and distributed protocol. Deletion is best effort and while the ideal use case would be instant deletion of your own content, everywhere, on demand, it's just not feasible.
I sympathize, I really do, I just don't have any answers.

@by_caballero thanks, I’ll have a look!

@django https://codeberg.org/socialweb.coop/activitypub-testing this could easily be forked as a starting point

@mleduc @saerdnaer @xwikiorg it was amazing when it was alive! Now there is https://ibis.wiki for federated wiki software currently

@django They are currently no ActivityPub C2S tests in FediTest. No reason why they could not be added, though, other than the time it takes.
Also, see https://feditest.org/contrib/results/

@saerdnaer @liaizon at @xwikiorg we did an activitypub extension https://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/ActivityPub%20Application/ for #xwiki, sadly it is not working anymore with other actors of the fediverse and we don't have the bandwidth to revive the extension. But it proved that it was technically possible.

Random #fosdem notes. Met a nice dev from @ente #ente with whom I discussed a subtle bug on GitHub a few weeks ago (thanks for the now released fix!). Also met @liaizon. Thanks for reaching out; it's always cool to discuss the integration #activitypub in wikis!

@j12t digging around l see that there are some some tests relating to client/server relationship
This is all I could find though, is there any documentation of which tests are performed? Or does it follow what the original test suite did?
