@julian @heathenstorm can you tell me a bit more about the update issues you have?
edits of posts should be federated as updates, otherwise it is a bug or interference with other plugins!?

@heathenstorm @julian maybe mastodon is checking the diff of the summary and if the changes does not effect the summary, it will not be updated!?
@pfefferle @julian In my tests the edits were made in the first paragraph, so both summary and preview fields updated as well. (The latter being Note type.)
@heathenstorm have you experienced similar issues with Articles @julian @johnonolan @matt ???
@pfefferle @heathenstorm @julian @matt we’ve seen some other/different strangeness - like update activities trigger posts returning to the top of the feed in mastodon as if they’re new. So when someone edits a bunch of posts from 5 years ago, it sometimes floods the feeds of followers
Been pondering the change in the #activitypub #wordpress plugin to depreciate Template Tags and (presumably eventually) only federate WP posts as Article objects.
@johnonolan@mastodon.xyz @pfefferle@mastodon.social @elena@aseachange.com only for Articles?!
I haven't seen this myself but I don't edit my topics much after they're out there.
@pfefferle @julian There doesn’t seem to be any problem with the ActivityPub Wordpress plugin. Update activities on Article objects are correctly federated; and Friendica picks up the changes without issue.
(As an aside, I had to install the nodeinfo WP plugin so follow requests worked from Friendica, but that could just be my homelab configuration.)
It’s just Mastodon that doesn’t do anything with Article Updates. So for now I keep using Template Tags and a Note object.
