Hi Evan we originally used the Listen verb from the AP vocab but no AP client supports it. We are checking again. -see image below.

@samsethi @_elena @tchambers @dave @mike @js @james @adam oh, that's great to hear. What AP client do you mean? Like, Mastodon?

@evan @samsethi I would see it as a great thing if Truefans used the correct verbs here, paving the way for AP client support for them.

@james @evan the honest answer was on Friday we were struggling to get anything comments, notes or listens to federate. We took a step back and created a simple note to send which worked. On Monday we will go back and test if Listen works and on which AP clients. I’ll publish the results here. As you say James Listen is more accurate and preferable, we would like to use more of the AP vocab and offer filtering on TrueFans.social

@samsethi @james @evan It would be great to have a comprehensive list of what verbs do when presented to different clients - which ones get coerced into other types vs. which are natively accepted.

It would also be great if more servers had better handling of arbitrary activity types.

It looks like Mastodon only handles a fixed set of Activity types and doesn't use fallback représentations for them:

@dave @samsethi @james I think it does a better job with the `object` of a `Create` activity.

@dave @samsethi @james I'm going to open a ticket for it on the Mastodon GitHub.

Pleroma uses Listen activities for LastFM-like scrobbling, guess it can be modified to work with TrueFans

@mkljczk @samsethi that's awesome!

I think what we're talking about here is Mastodon's mechanism for handling incoming activities. I think the docs say it tries to massage them into a status.

I'm going to experiment with the Listen activity and see what I can find.
