@[email protected] @[email protected] I believe (hopefully wrongly) that few implementors send Article because Mastodon treats it like a generic object (only reads name and url and disregards content

Chicken and egg problem, nobody wants to be the first to publish it because it is consumed by so few.

Our newly formed forum and link sharing working group will hopefully address that shortcoming!

@julian @Paul I doubt that forming a working group will make Mastodon devs put more resources into spec compliance. They had plenty of time to prove they can be a good member of the community and in my opinion, they failed. They rely on their leader position to have smaller projects implement their quirks instead of being a good neighbour and prioritizing spec compliance.

@julian @Paul everyone is worried that Facebook will bully the fediverse with EEE strategies, while failing to recognize that Mastodon already does this and nobody bats an eye.
