Bonfire pushed a big release last week, and I'm excited to try out all the new shiny things on my test instance.

Post migration and Quote Posts among them.

#Bonfire #ActivityPub

[box464@mastodon.social]

Request came through to allow the quote, but Mastodon hasn't released it yet....

[Guest]

Hmmm...strange this is that this group (general@activitypub.space) and a newsmast channel both boosted the quote post prior to me approving it. And Mastodon is still showing it as pending approval from my Bonfire account, tho I did approve it. Might be in a queue...still the group accounts shouldn't be able to boost the quote post if it's not approved?

@box464 you mean doesn't release the request/accept/decline flow?

[box464@mastodon.social]

@cheeaun Yes, still seeing this in my Mastodon notifications.

1) Quoted post from Mastodon.
2) Approved post in Bonfire.
3) Mastodon doesn't recognize acceptance

Does Phanpy have functionality to approve/deny post quotes yet?

box464 box464@mastodon.social nothing out of the ordinary here.

Interaction controls are for the quoted post, not for the quote post itself.

@box464 if approved on Bonfire's side, Mastodon should recognize it… probably takes time? 🙈

There's no approve/deny UI/flow/API on Mastodon's side. I've asked & got this response "we included support for it in case someday another software wants it" and "(but we think it's not a good idea, as it means your quote can be displayed as pending for a long time, which is not ideal in a timeline-based network)" — which I think make sense. By the time it's approved, it's probably too old to be read
