@renchap @GottaLaff Protocolbros overthinking it as usual. The functionality provided by most mastodon apps of just showing the post preview for links to posts is really all we are asking for. I don’t see any reason to change the protocol. Just change the UI in your apps to support previews of linked posts like nearly everyone other than Mastodon gGmbH does and we will be happy. I’ve been using in Mona for at least a year, and have not needed answers to any of those questions.
