@kaia there are development efforts to extend activitypub. The goal is to make it so you can restrict who can reply to your posts. It can't control other servers but it can control what replies show up below posts on your server, or who you get notified by when replies happen.

@sun oh makes sense. so you said in your initial post that the remote server cannot know whether a reply is appreciated or not?

@kaia I don't know what the latest decision is but they are trying to make it so you can set rules on who can reply, and you will see something like "you can't reply" unless you're on the secret list.

@Zergling_man @kaia I am kind of against it but at the same time it will happen whether we like it or not so it should be specified.

@Zergling_man @kaia there are non-microblog contexts where it could be very useful and activitypub is not just microblog.

@sun @kaia if the list isn't public / attached to the activity you have to waste an HTTP request to find out. How stupid
