@julian I am reading through the context fep and I am wondering if nodeBB only supports the context to be a collection or could it also be a post that starts a conversation?
-
@scott use `tag` for that
@infinite love ⴳ That is doable. But the naming convention is a bit wonky.
You use context for collections. You use tags for context. You use summary for content warnings.
You don't want to use the term threads to describe threads because you want it to be a collection, which you call a context. So there is no way to specify the top level post without creating a collection.
It would be nice if the names reflected what the field is actually used for. -

It would be nice if the names reflected what the field is actually used for.- context isnt just collections, it's basically a supertag that lets you group things that belong together, the other half of scoping (next to audience)
- tags are literally "related to" taxonomical references so this shouldn't be mismatched at all
- threads aren't necessarily trees with a top or root, they may be a chronologically sorted ordered set
- names have multiple interpretations and connotations, this is ideally why we use URIs not basic string terms. as2-vocab has definitions. -

Exactly. It is not for #hastags like the name implies. -

It is not for #hastags like the name implies.@scott AS2 didn't define a Hashtag type and also literally yes it's not for that, it's for the concept of a "tag". like if you tag an Image with a Person you are implying the Image contains the Person, and you can reverse query for all objects with a `tag` of that Person. they're basically categories. this is in the definition

What do we use for hashtags, since tags is used for "related to." LOL
This is so funny. LOL. One misnomer after another. Haha
I needed a laugh.
But seriously, where to hashtags go? LOL
Edit: To be clear, I am laughing at the absurdly of life, and not any particular person. Life doesn't always match your expectations, and sometimes you have to laugh about it. -

@infinite love ⴳ I understand how it is defined. I am just commenting, and laughing, at the fact that the terms ActivityPub uses does not match the common meaning of the words.
Unless I looked up "tag" in ActivityPub, I would have never assumed in a million years that it meant "related to" because everyone else uses the term "tag" to mean "hashtag." -

@scott hmm that's no good, have you filed issues for this yet?

@liaizon@social.wake.st @scott@loves.tech likely a bug with Hubzilla as it's working when tested against NodeBB (and I think Mastodon)
Can you send me the JSON payload for an Update activity?
