I'm curious what other devs think about this. If an actor posts an C2S #ActivityPub Create/Note to the outbox, what would you think if the object created by the server was a different type (e.g., Article)?
@steveSteve Bate This is really interesting.
I see a few cases. One is an ActivityPub API façade for an existing CMS, like Drupal or WordPress. The underlying system only stores Articles, so it tries to fit any input into that format. It might also take a Create/Image and return an Article with an embedded image, say.
If you have a fediverse account, you can quote this note from your own instance. Search https://cosocial.ca/users/evan/statuses/116057527711273802 on your instance and quote it. (Note that quoting is not supported in Mastodon.)
