@david Because our app is based on Twitter and the whole system is designed around numeric post ID's. We were able to quickly pivot to Mastodon because it also only uses numeric post ID's. Some other ActivityPub services use AlphaNumeric ID's which completely fail in our app because it wasn't designed for them. We plan to look into what it's going to take to redo our low level systems to support them when we have more time.
@ivory thank you so much for the explanation. Each time I've reached out in the past you have not let me down (customer service wise), and I truly appreciate that.
I look forward for that time to come; you have a certain, latent, waiting customer in me.
