@david@weaknotes.com in what way, that the category is cleared out regularly? I think that happens often already with users auto-deleting their posts. https://activitypub.academy is another example of a test instance that is regularly cleared. Either way I take no offense if try.nodebb.org gets blocked here and there

@j12t@j12t.social ah, it was a small group, just myself @trwnh@mastodon.social, @dmitri@social.coop, and @tallted@mastodon.social for the latter half.

> Doesn't this mean Mastodon users et al will no longer get boost notifications when their posts are reshared into a topic? Correct, only OP will be shared. Unless I am mistaken this is how Lemmy implemented it. Announce-ing activities only, and one single Announce(Note) for compatibility with Mastodon.

@fuina@mastodon.social ActivityPub protocol does not specify anything with regards to account and data portability. Mastodon supports migration of the follower collection. The data portability document you linked is a work in progress by some very smart people at the Social Web Incubator Community Group.

@silverpill@mitra.social when discussed with Nutomic about this, I made the case that 1b12 is excellent for synchronization. 7888 (and 171b, etc.) are good for backfill, in cases where there is no 1b12 implementation available.

@naturzukunft@mastodon.social just give up and embrace the fact that any given ID might not resolve, either temporarily or permanently.

@silverpill@mitra.social thanks! Been waiting for a document like this to come out.
