The logs from this are already cleared on my server, but when I sent a private message (standard Create/Note with a single recipient who also has a Mention in the tag property) from my custom software to my account here, I received a 500 error saying something like “cc is not iterable” (though I don’t know the exact phrasing). When I included cc as an empty array, it started working. Not sure whether it was missing on Create or Note, maybe it was both.
Ah, that’s unfortunate. When NodeBB sends a chat message out, it is just a regular Note with the recipients directly addressed, with no
as:Publicpseudo-user.So as long as PieFed handles mentioned-only notes the activity should be processed…
@julian It currently doesn’t. If someone is Mentioned, the assumption is that it was part of post / comment in a community, and it fails because it can’t find the community. I know that, for Lemmy, if you Mention someone in a comment, and they don’t have a copy of the community (or they do and there’s no local subscribers to it), then it will reject it. I don’t know what it does if there’s no community at all (I’ll figure out a way to test it, on a server I can control).
@freamon Update: no, Lemmy doesn’t understand them either. It rejects Create / Note without a community with the usual “did not match any variant of untagged enum AnnouncableActivities”
