@gabek @mike @atomicpoet @davew @judell @Mastodon It really isn't as simple as that, unfortunately.
The Mastodon API as currently implemented lacks important auto-discovery for endpoints.
Note, the Client-Server aspect of #ActivityPub is for a #Fediverse comprising loosely-couple clients and servers.
You are expressing a point of view that's played out repeatedly over 30+ years with utterly predictable outcomes.
Seeking Mastodon specificity is contradictory to the Fediverse ethos.
