I mean, that's the nature of the beast: federated social graph.
For me C2S made a lot more sense when I started to look at server/clients that speak it analogous to email server/clients.
Yes there's more content in a normal ActivityPub inbox, but so what? The net is faster today, there's more plumbing in place for asynchronous content loading (HTTP2 or 3), etc.
@mariusor well, if you can optimize something, you should. I'm a firm believer that underlying architecture must follow presentation. So if I have notifications and feed as separate streams in the UI, and comments (replies) aren't part of the feed, it makes sense for the client API to reflect that. I also have all images in different sizes and in webp, and I have remote users in my local database anyway — it would be weird to not use all that in the client.
