Wow, great post. I was mildly annoyed by all the piefed shenanigans from non compliance with activitypub but this really is quite eye opening
Yeah I don't understand why the project can't conform to the AP standards. I get the desire to have a blocking feature that's more robust than just a cosmetic feature. One that actually prevents a user from replying. But they way they've gone about it obviously isn't it. Creating ghost comment chains on other AP services is not good.
