@dansup Actually we will not. We may allow ingesting a max of 150 from other AP servers, but you will not be able to create such large collections from within Mastodon.

@evan Aw, that means you almost made it to Bonn. If you ever do and would like to meet up, please let me know.

(And please give Leslie my regards if she is still with you.)

@dansup interactionPolicies are there so that you can set the right expectations in your UI (e.g. not offer to quote someone who never ever wants to be quoted).

The quoteAuthorization part is necessary, so that implementations can (in theory) offer manual approval on a per-post basis and (quite practically) to allow revocation of consent after the fact.

It tends to confuse me as well every now and then, but it makes sense when you think about it some more.

Carnival season is upon us and today we tried on a couple of costumes.

@jwildeboer @renchap Agreed, that is pretty much what we are thinking as well.

@jwildeboer @renchap FWIW what you are describing is mostly how it already works today. We "just" need to replace the current formatter with a markdown parser. Federation is not affected at all. But we do a *lot* of formatting of posts, so we need to be sure performance does not hurt too much. Depending on the specific markdown parser there are also subtle issues with parsing and marking up of @-mentions, hashtags etc. This can all be solved and it is on my agenda, but not with the highest prio.

Trying on possible costumes for Halloween.
