       theoretically, if one were to release a cohost clone which spoke a very restricted form of activitypub, would that be interesting to anyone?

       @kopper does not completely break compatibility with mastodon, but discards posts which use some mastodon features, such as scopes.

       @kopper for example, 'followers-only posts' do not make any sense in thicket, so we just ignore them.  we cannot do anything else with them that respects the intent of the author, so our only option is to reject the post.

       @kopper similarly, i think unencrypted DMs are stupid in 2026, so if you send one to thicket, it also gets similarly redirected to /dev/null

       @kopper in essence, as:Public posts from mastodon will federate, but non-as:Public posts will not.  at least for now.

       some details:- codenamed thicket (i may rename it but it is trademark-clean)- elixir + phoenix liveview (in other words, we have a goal of minimal javascript)- postgresql 13 or later- completely different data model than both bonfire and pleroma/akkoma, e.g. no JSONB in the database- only public posts federate from other servers- both Article and Note are supported, other AS2 entity types will be supported later

       features thicket already has that mastodon does NOT:- you can turn off comments (obviously we cannot prevent federated servers from disrespecting this, but your homeserver will /dev/null them if comments are disabled)- programmatic spam filtering (basically copy + paste MRF from pleroma)

       @ariadne /dev/null ing comments also means, that you can't react to them. If there is a decent "no comments"-flag you could enforce it by automatic reports/defederation in theory

       @TheConstructor /dev/nulling comments means that you do not want comments.  we cannot control what other instances do and i will not pretend otherwise.

       @ariadne I understand, that you don't want them, but other instance will likely still show them alongside your post - especially, when they were made on said instance. And then I feel like not knowing about them is at times bad

       @TheConstructor okay cool, anyway, again, THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT THAT.did you know that people can also screenshot posts and comment on the post in the screenshot?i am not going to sell people false hope and i will NOT be swayed to do so.

       @ariadne I am not saying that you should sell false hopes. It just feels off, that your very own post may be shown alongside comments you are unaware of, when e.g. viewing your profile on a federated instance. No need to screenshot or repost it in any way. And that's why I was thinking about being able to automatically moderate them away, if there is no way to at least tell the commonly used implementation to disallow replies
