Topic removal from a category/community
-
Possibly although the differences of federation between the threadiverse and the rest of the fediverse go way beyond deletes. FEP 1b12 is a whole thing, chipping away at it piece by piece would be slow going.
Personally I think 1b12 doesn't need to be changed or hacked around. It doesn't specifically call for federating out deletes so I'd think any solution we come up with together would work with that FEP, not go against it.

I also think that backfill will have a side effect of connecting the threadiverse and the rest of the fediverse.
Exposing context collections will mean consumers will be able to see both *verses. Once Mastodon starts consuming them I predict you will start seeing much more engagement from the microblogs.
The same would apply if Piefed or Lemmy begin consuming them as well.
That is an angle I had not even considered until now!

rimu@piefed.social silverpill@mitra.social I gave this a bit more thought and I am coming around to the idea that
Removecould work.I am assuming that when Piefed sends
Announce(Delete(Object))this is only understood by Piefed? Not Lemmy (and certainly not NodeBB, yet)...In that case, a move to a simpler
Remove(target: context)signed and acted on by the community actor, would send a more explicit message that the object was removed from the community.The "1b12-speaking" portion of it would be an
Undo(Announce(Create)), although once again I am not even sure if that action is understood by Piefed/Lemmy. -

No, that's a Lemmy thing too.

Oh okay. I wasn't sure about that since I don't think it's documented in the FEP, though it's been awhile since I've given it a read through.

rimu@piefed.social Do you send the
Undo(Announce(Create))as well for microblog compatibility? -
Looks like for Mastodon we just do a bare
Delete. -

Delete.rimu@piefed.social got it, thanks. How do you reconcile the Delete coming from outside your domain? I would figure Mastodon would drop those Deletes.
Edit: that was confusing wording... I mean — how do you sign a Delete for an object that doesn't belong to your instance?
-
We only federate the deletion if it is in one of our local communities.
The activity is signed by the person who did it, so if Mastodon detects that the person deleting is not the author and doesn't know how to find out if someone is a moderator or not, that's their problem.
Mastodon has been dropping the ball on groups support for years so I didn't even bother to find out if they handle it well - I bet they don't.
