@BeAware@social.beaware.live I dunno, all I ever hear from AP devs is it's impossible to work with because there's no formal org for standardization so they're forced to just conform to how mastodon handles everything

This feels more like Evan taking a larger role in how AP is organized. I'm not even sure what it means to be an 'industry supporter' it sounds like that's just a list of orgs that said 'that's a good idea'

@BeAware@social.beaware.live yeah weird, it's gotta be a bug because I doubt acm.org is intentionally archiving posts lol

I would hope that mastodon notifies the server if they replied to a deleted post though, in case a delete message falls through

@FandaSin@social.linux.pizza @BeAware@social.beaware.live Yes this is possible and I think it's been discussed as a solution. The concern, last time I was reading about it, is that malevolent servers could poison a link preview and send fake images along with the url (the argument against this is you're already 'trusting' the server if you're federating with them, so that trust should extend to link previews)

Another proposed solution was just having servers wait a random amount of time before fetching the link preview so not every server is requesting the preview at the same time
