Castopod announces an episode with a Note that only links to the episode's page, which serves a PodcastEpisode. PrivaPub
reads PodcastEpisode (its words in description, its sound in audio, its cover in image), and a Note that is only a link
to its author's own episode takes the episode's sound, title, cover and words, so the post plays. A server that
publishes no NodeInfo is described from NodeInfo2 (/.well-known/x-nodeinfo2), as Castopod publishes.

A remote post decided who here may see it by its Mention tags alone. A
followers-only post addressed in to or cc to a persona without naming
it (Akkoma's to[], or a GoToSocial edit that took the @name out while
the post stayed addressed to the persona) was hidden from that persona.
Such personas are now kept as silent mentions, as Mastodon does: they
see the post and it reaches their home, and no list shows them as
mentioned. An edit never narrows who a post was for.
The GoToSocial note that showed it is the first captured fixture
(Fixtures/gotosocial), and parses with its lone tag, to and cc.

- A remote `summary` is a content warning only on a Note or Question, or when `sensitive` is set. On Articles,
Events, Videos, Pages and Audio it is an excerpt (WordPress teasers, Mobilizon dates and places, Mbin titles) and
is now kept as `Post.Excerpt` instead of hiding the post. `Post.ObjectType` records the remote type, and the
Mastodon API shows a remote non-Note object's title above its body again.
- Persona usernames must match `^[a-z0-9_]+$`, as groups already did; a name outside it was unreachable from
Mastodon and Misskey.
- `postingRestrictedToMods` is defined in our JSON-LD context (Iceshrimp.NET drops undefined terms).
- `Vary: Accept` on actor and object URLs.
- Owner decision: blocks federate. A block sends `Block`, an unblock `Undo{Block}`; checked live against GoToSocial.
- Owner decision: a persona's and a group's `published`, and the day in new ids, is a random day up to two weeks
before creation, so personas made the same day no longer share a date. Migration _007 gives existing ones theirs.

Found by the first live run against GoToSocial:
- A remote post's id came from its published second plus random bytes, so a reply arriving in the same second as
the post it answers could sort under it, and a late arrival landed behind a client's since_id. A post published
within the last hour now gets an id for its arrival; backfill keeps its published time.
- NoteParser.Time returned default(DateTime) for a missing "updated", so every remote post was stored as edited in
year one. Migration _006 clears the stored ones.
- published now carries milliseconds, so peers that derive ids from it (GoToSocial, Mastodon) keep our posts in
order within a second.

Post gains what federation and the Mastodon API need: Visibility (Public,
Unlisted, FollowersOnly, Direct, Circle, LocalGeo), the author's account
id, to/cc, the Create's id, url, context, quote, InReplyToURI and the
parent's author, a separate SpoilerText next to the title, language,
mentions, hashtags, remote attachments (alt text, blurhash, focus, size),
reply/favourite/reblog counters, revisions, EditedAt and DeletedAt.
Direct messages are Posts with Visibility Direct and a ConversationId;
migration _005 copies DmPost rows across with their ids and fills the new
fields of existing posts. DmPost is left in place so a rollback still sees
the old messages.
Inbound:
- NoteParser reads Note, Article, Page, Question and media types: content,
then contentMap, then _misskey_content; summary as the spoiler and name
as the title; Mention and Hashtag tags; attachments; a PeerTube-style
list attribution prefers the person over the channel; quote URIs.
- Addressing classifies like Mastodon, finding followers-only by the
author's own followers URL (now stored on ForeignAvatar), not by a
"/followers" suffix.
- Create keeps a post when a local persona is addressed or mentioned, when
it replies to a local post (the parent's reply count goes up) or when a
community it follows is addressed; an unsolicited public post is not
stored. Update keeps the previous version as a revision.
The outbox and object endpoints serve only Public and Unlisted posts.
