@hongminhee I find the means overcomplicating the ends. Abstractions will just increase the bloat. Example? The content-negotiation voodoo for contrived usecases. Or the 'orderedItems' in contrast 'items' plus a 'type' indicationg the same. All this NIH redundancy just for brittleness.

Maybe pubsubhubbub plus salmon + a bit of rdf can do the same.

But alas, ap is here for now.

@hongminhee @blainsmith agreed, so what can we (you and I, seriously) do about it? In the short term there may be only holding our breath and hoping the best. What in the longer terms?

@boyter instead of reading 'posting to #ActivityPub endpoint' the task description reads like this: https://blog.mro.name/2022/12/nlnet-seppo/#2-new-post-via-cli

Maybe nomad, (hubzilla?) salmon or websub additional make sense.

@boyter …none of which (AP servers) provides a test-endpoint. That's hostile wannabe-monopoly-culture.
