I mean, since I am doing an ActivityPub server / client myself, I would have the following problem to federate with gath.io :
See https://github.com/redaktor/widgets-preview (still a mess) –
The widgets e.g. "Cards" do render _all_ the AP types and differently.
I am currently working on the layout for "Event", see screenshot (random words)
It will have "where" and "when" below the headline (after coffee) …
However, for all gath.io events it would now render a "Person" card …

I doubt that it helps ActivityPub if we try to downgrade anything to the very limited possibilities of mastodon UI.
I think mastodon would "convert it".
Also see e.g. https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/#conformance
ActivityPub conformant Server
"This designation applies to any implementation of the entirety of the server portion of the client to server protocol."
This does not mean "only Note object type, only Person actor type, no i18n support, few properties etc."
It means "the entirety" …
