@smallcircles @steve please comment on the issue!

@smallcircles @steve I know what an "event bus" is but I don't think it applies here. Usually it means a global data structure that attached processes can add events to and read events from. We don't have that in ActivityPub.
I think it's fair to say that activities are like events.
I also like the use cases and primer.
-
The way I see it, this has the wrong stakeholder name of "ActivityPub API client developer" i.e. spec implementer, and a Home Feed is something I may want as a "Solution developer" stakeholder. In other words that library or SDK that offers me the Social API should allow me to model that.
The user story was also brought up by Mastodon, a Microblogging solution built on top of AP (ideally).
-
@steve @smallcircles I also agree that having a separate "home timeline" and "notifications timeline" makes sense. There's an open user story for that:
-
That said, I think it would be great to have reverse chronological ordered collections of objects created by the actor.
It would be nice to use `streams` like `endpoints`, as an object, and define properties like `notes`, `images`, `places` and so on off of it.
Unfortunately the loose definition and lack of examples for `streams` makes it hard to use. It's probably better just to define them as top-level properties of the actor.

The actor's event bus in a pure event based approach. 😃
Does that break AP? Current fediverse?
Can AP be considered an event-driven architecture of sorts (or restrained as such in a solution design)?I really like the Motivating use cases section of the AS specs, and the primer that sits on the W3C wiki to that. Those might be further formalized so they are applied consistently.
-
@steve @smallcircles I also agree that activities are more primary than content objects like notes and images in ActivityPub. That is by design and reflected in the name of the data format, API and federation protocol.
-
@steve @smallcircles The `inbox` and `outbox` are both sequences ordered by time. I think that should meet your requirements for a 'timeline'?
I think it's fair to call the outbox the actor's 'feed'? It is a feed of all their activities.
