#Smithereen update. If a comment gets deleted and there are replies to it, this no longer breaks the thread. In this particular case, instead of deleting the DB row completely, I null most of it but keep id and reply key. And the #ActivityPub object remains fetchable but returns a Tombstone with replies & inReplyTo. Speaking of replies, my posts didn't have that collection for some reason, now they do.
@grishka Fuck yeah, breaking threads is annoying.
Also annoying: not having the edit feature.
@drq I'm going to have edit feature at some point. Having to delete your post and send it again because of a typo is just plain cruel.
Except if I understood Mastodon docs correctly, it doesn't accept Update{Note}.
(I made a typo in this post and had to resend it, how ironic)
