How much can I extend an OrderedCollection?
-
Just an idle thought... A common UX is users copying the URL in the address bar and pasting it into their fediverse app to load it in their app.
Right now if you copy a NodeBB topic (
/topic/12345) and paste it into something like Mastodon, you'll get nothing because it is an ordered collection and it doesn't know how to handle it.But... what if I passed in a
previewproperty a la evan@cosocial.ca's b2b8 and it contained aNote? Maybe a note with a differentid? Maybe with aname?Waiting for trwnh@mastodon.social to tell me this is a terrible idea.

@julian ideally, Mastodon should use `name` and `summary` for any unrecognized type

@julian even more ideal would be if Mastodon could recognize that the collection was a Thread specifically, but one step at a time

trwnh@mastodon.social yep exactly that's what I was going for.
If you paste an URL to an ordered collection into NodeBB it'll try to load the thread. That'd be ideal.
But I will settle for understanding name and summary!
