Yeah, id helps. it actually wouldn’t be practically possible without ids.

Thats how FEP-1b12 works, its necessary if you want to federate activities such as voting, deletions or mod actions and not only post creations. But Lemmy doesnt support arbitrarily wrapped activities, only specific hardcoded ones like Announce/Create/Note, Announce/Like or Announce/Delete.

>The originating server may not know who is part of the group and who is not, and therefore it can't enforce privacy by requiring a signed fetch.

In Friendica, group participants are represented by private followers collection, which can be retrieved using signed fetch:

So I don't see any fundamental difference between FEP-400e and FEP-1b12. The authentication issue, however, is quite important, because without FEP-8b32 the group either doesn't scale or can impersonate anyone.
