@erincandescent @julian @evan can you give an example of the "context" property in use?
-
@[email protected] @[email protected] keep in mind we're talking about
as:contextand not@context -

@erincandescent side note it is cool that browser.pub handles redirects seamlessly

@trwnh side note: this subthread is a totally perfect illustation of why being able to “fork” the thread would be useful.

@erincandescent right! it's not about replies at all, you can reply to something in a different thread, so it's wrong to define a "thread" as equivalent to a "reply tree"
-
@[email protected] after we deal with conversational contexts we should probably define forking threads. I've been thinking on that a bit recently.
-
@julian @erincandescent likewise. my initial thought was using Move to signal something like "these 6 posts were moved to another thread by a moderator"
-
@[email protected] @[email protected] Right, it gets a little confusing when implementors inherit
contextfrom the objects they're replying to (or maybe the root node?), but that's exactly what 7888 tries to codify/demystify.But Akkoma's use of
contextseems to be in line with 7888 (in that it's pointing back to the resolvable context provided by NodeBB). -
@trwnh @julian @erincandescent I guess there you'd need to look at Move and make sure the target/actor/objects weren't Actors but where other objects?
-
@erincandescent @trwnh so by my reckoning, Mastodon and Misskey don't use context, akkoma does... ugh, I need to add more sources to my observatory

@darius @evan @julian side note: Akkoma also emits a “conversation” property containing the same URL, which is JSON-LD mapped to
http://ostatus.org#conversation. This is because Mastodon will pass-through theconversationproperty to replies, but doesn’t know aboutcontext. When Mastodon generates a Conversation tag (e.g. when its absent from the parent post), it stuffs a tag URI liketag:cosocial.ca,2024-10-04:objectId=26829720:objectType=Conversationinto it. This is visible in evan’s earlier postside side note: “conversation” is misdeclared as a “@value” and not “@id” property in Mastodon’s context. Oh well.

-
@julian @erincandescent if you want your post to be in the same context as the thing you're replying to, then it's inherited from the thing you're replying to.
7888 also describes what could happen if you decide to set your own context, or set *no* context. in fact, this is how you would self-fork a topic.

@thisismissem @julian @erincandescent yeah, honestly the existing use of Move for migrations is really unfortunate because you're saying "i moved myself from myself to another person" which makes no sense. it should have been defined some other way (Migrate activity? intransitive, takes `actor` and `target` but no `object`). Move makes more sense to manipulate collections (and that's the example provided in AS2-Vocab)
