@hongminhee洪 民憙 (Hong Minhee) Isn't that FEP based on the GTS spec? If it's notably worse, I guess that says something about the process
@TakTak!
@hongminhee洪 民憙 (Hong Minhee) it's the other way around, FEP-5624 pre-dates GTS' interaction policies but was never implemented anywhere and did not get much traction; the bulk of the discussion at the time was about who should control the reply policy (original post author or person you immediately reply to)
GTS decided to pick the second solution even if it's not necessarily the ideal one, because it's much simpler to implement
GTS' interaction policies were then refined with a lot of back-and-forth with Mastodon devs when we were working on quote posts (resulting in FEP-044F which re-use GTS' interaction policies)
maybe we should retire FEP-5624
