@naturzukunft2026@mastodon.social what's a "show thread" request?

@julian C2S getContext show it as a tree. I'm experimenting.

@naturzukunft2026@mastodon.social what's the problem? The context endpoint just resolves to a paginated ordered collection.

@julian "ordered collection" yes, but the question is how to fill the collection. currently i have a thread where i came to my deep 50 limit ,-) i will see what happens today, i hope.
And the other site is how the UI is interpreting the collection
and a collection is by a lsit of iri's or resolved iri's. there are a lot of possibilities ;-)

@julian and the collection is always a flat-topped tree!

@naturzukunft2026@mastodon.social yes that's correct, it's just a flat list for ease of processing. The tree building takes place after all of the objects are received and processed.

@smallcircles @ben Unfortunately, the top-down approach often stalls under its own inertia and never develops into anything at all.
If you try for too much interoperability too fast, the costs aren't evenly distributed: some implementors will have to make very few changes (usually the ones who had the most power and influence during the standardisation process), while others will have to tear up a lot of stuff and start over.
In the business/government/aid world, that can have ripples far beyond the IT systems, right into the way they organise their operations; in the FOSS world, it can mean abandoning popular features, losing users, and even destroying the contributor culture.
An 800 lb gorilla like Walmart can force that level.of dirigisme on its suppliers, but in the open world, we can just ignore or fork if we think someone's getting too restrictive: note how most web syndicators stuck with RSS 2.0 even after Atom came along to "fix" its "problems," for example (and Atom wasn't even that bad). 🤷

@hongminhee thank you!

@smallcircles
I remember this sentence from https://ufind.univie.ac.at/de/person.html?id=1001662, around 2013:
"Interoperability can only be proven after the fact."

@smallcircles@social.coop Okay, we'll look into the list, and send pull requests!
