@silverpill @eyeinthesky @thisismissem @smallcircles which is to say, as2 has an "object processing" mode (check name, summary, content, icon, image, ... and render generic display) and an "activity processing" mode (check actor, object, ... and render an activity in the stream) which coexist. the "activity processing" is underutilized in fedi, but it's the more interesting one because it lets you unify a lot of disparate models without forcing everything to be a Note (checkins, scrobbles, etc)
