Curious, the deleted post doesn't show up in the thread on PeerTube, Mastodon, or Soapbox. It does still appear on the thread on Podverse and Podcastindex
@errhead Looks like it hasn't been removed from the comments collection. That could be caching or it might not be removed at all.
@alex What is the generally expected behavior in a situation like this? We're trying to determine what AP servers do/expect when comments are "deleted" or "hidden" from a thread if you don't control the originating server.
Also, what's the current state of AP support in your application (Podverse?). Is it ready for production use? If so, I could include it in my @weekinfediverse weekly newsletter.
Say you start/own a thread for comments on a podcast or video. Someone from another instance makes a reply directly to the top-level AP object with highly illegal content and you want to delete it on your side to prevent it from being seen by others.
While it's marked as deleted in your "gui", as peertube appears to be doing, should we expect to omit the "deleted" object from the replies/comments collection?
Or do we merely rely on reporting + moderation and hope it's deleted eventually, even though we might not see the deleted activity?
