** ActivityPub
# - ActivityPub is an actor model protocol.
# - The general design can be understood from the overview section of the spec
# - In general, most of the design of ActivityPub is fairly clean, with
# a few exceptions
# - sharedInbox is a break from the actor model protocol and was a late
# addition
# - authentication is not specified
# - authorization is not specified
# - (json-ld conversations outside of the scope of this particular post)
# - What to do about the holes in the spec? Many community members have
# asked that we codify current behavior. However, as this document lays
# out, some of the ways those holes were filled may be causing problems
# and we may want to consider how to best redirect them without throwing
# out the network as it has been deployed.
# - Nonetheless, ActivityPub has achieved major adoption. ActivityPub
# has the good fortune that its earliest adopters were frequently
# people who are actively concerned with human rights and the
# well-being of marginalized groups.
