A cursed #ActivityPub idea.

Problem: Remote profiles sometimes look empty on Mastodon because only the stickied posts are synchronized on profile update.

Observation: Neither the ActivityPub nor Mastodon specs limit the number of sticky posts on a profile. Nothing says you can't have 100 000 sticky posts.

Solution: an ActivityPub server implementation that auto-stickies every single post you write.

The things I come up with thinking about @fedifyFedify: ActivityPub server framework while in the shower.
