A thread's server passes on what happens in it, signed with its own key: Mastodon forwards the replies to its accounts' posts and their deletions, Friendica every activity in its threads. PrivaPub answered them 401, which also tells a sender its signature failed. Now they get 202 and nothing in them is believed: a forwarded Create or Update is taken as its object reads at the actor's origin, a Delete of a public or unlisted copy once that origin answers 404 or 410 (RemoteActorService.IsGone; FederationHttp remembers the status of a refusal), anything else is let go, and our own activities coming back are ignored. A forwarded copy has its own dedupe key, so one that failed never hides the author's own delivery. A reply in the thread of someone followed here is kept, as Mastodon keeps them. Mastodon delivers a reply to the followers of the account it answers; PrivaPub dropped those as unaddressed, which the pasture showed: the outsider's reply its Mastodon scenario said was never delivered had been, and was thrown away.
