Arrival carries a verdict that handlers set with one line before an existing return
(Arrival.Drop, Reject, Accept, About), so no handler signature changes. InboxProcessor
records it as an 'in' event, with the time taken, the wait since the inbox accepted it, the
attempt, the audience (from the post's visibility, or else the activity's addressing), the
local actor kind, the object's age for updates, deletes and reactions, and the FEP features
of a delivered object. It also records types nothing handles (unknown-type), actors that
cannot be loaded (deferred) and handler failures.
Drop reasons: fetch-failed, unparseable, misattributed, duplicate, deleted, not-addressed,
not-followed, not-public, not-visible, not-deleted, unknown-object, unknown-recipient,
cross-origin, unsupported. Accepted sub-reasons: stored, poll-vote, edit, refresh,
actor-refresh, actor-delete, removed, tombstone-only, auto-accepted, pending,
follow-answer, quote-answer, quote-granted, undone, reaction, reported. Rejected: blocked,
ignored, quote-refused.
A circle's traffic is private and kindless, and a stranger posting into one is just
not-addressed, so the event store cannot reveal a circle.

- Incoming reactions in all three shapes: Misskey and Sharkey Likes carrying an emoji (`content` or
`_misskey_reaction`), Pleroma, Akkoma and Iceshrimp.NET EmojiReacts, and their Undo. Unicode reactions are one
grapheme; custom ones need their Emoji tag and keep its image; `:name@host:` is read as `name`. A Like whose
content is a heart stays a favourite.
- Reactions are kept per account and emoji on our posts and on remote ones we hold, and the author of a local post
gets a `pleroma:emoji_reaction` notification with the emoji.
- Personas react through Pleroma's API (PUT/DELETE /api/v1/pleroma/statuses/:id/reactions/:emoji, GET for the list),
which sends an EmojiReact (or its Undo) to the post's author.
- Statuses carry `emoji_reactions` (read by Phanpy) and `pleroma.emoji_reactions`, with counts and whether the viewer
reacted.

- Dislike and its Undo are kept as downvotes (Lemmy, PieFed, Mbin, Friendica) and shown with favourites as votes.
- ChatMessage (Lemmy 0.19, Mbin, PieFed to those two) arrives as a direct message.
- A deleted object's id is remembered for 90 days, so a Create that arrives after its Delete cannot bring the post
back; the post's ObjectRecord goes with it.
- A Join of one of our objects is answered with Ignore, as FEP-8a8e asks of a server without RSVP.
- A 503 with Retry-After is waited out like a 429 instead of counting as a failure of the host (GoToSocial throttling,
Mastodon's temporary key failures).
- Status.privapub carries what a Mastodon Status cannot: object type, title, excerpt, cover, the author's source,
link, video, audio and event details, and up/down votes, with every media URL proxied.

- Like: a Favourite per account and post (unique), the post's counter, a
Favourite notification for a local author; only on posts the liker
could see (public and unlisted, or followers-only and direct when they
were addressed).
- Announce: the original is always refetched from its own origin (or is
ours), and must be public or unlisted. A boost of a local post counts
and notifies; a boost by an account a persona follows is stored as a
reblog row and fanned out to its followers' home timelines (as a reblog,
where reblogs are wanted). A boost by a stranger of a stranger's post is
ignored. FEP-1b12 group announces of activities wait for P4.
- Undo of a Like or an Announce reverses each of them; an Undo naming only
an id is matched against follows, likes and boosts in turn.

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.

InboxService is split the way the roadmap lays out Federation/Inbox:
- InboxReceiver reads and verifies the request exactly as before, runs
the checks that need no fetch (the activity id's origin, a Follow of a
missing or local-only actor, an Undo of someone else's activity, an
embedded object attributed to someone else), queues a ProcessInbox job
and answers 202. The job's dedupe key is the activity id, so a peer that
delivers the same activity twice is processed once.
- InboxProcessor (two at a time, eight attempts) loads the verified actor
and hands the activity to the handler for its type.
- Handlers/{Follow,Undo,Create,Delete,Update}Handler are the old methods,
unchanged except that they no longer produce status codes; the JSON
helpers live in Objects/ActivityJson and the group membership helpers in
Inbox/ForeignMembers.
A slow fetch of an object or a remote actor now delays the job, not the
sender's HTTP request.
