"id" is used for the canonical link to the AS2 representation of an object.
"url" is typically used for the canonical link to the HTTP representation.
It is what we use, for example, when following the "external source" link
in the frontend. However, it's not the link we include in the post contents
for quote posts.
Using URL instead means we include a more user-friendly URL for Mastodon,
and a working (in the browser) URL for Threads
To save on bandwith and avoid OOMs with large files.
Ofc, this relies on the remote server
(a) sending a content-length header and
(b) being honest about the size.
Common fedi servers seem to provide the header and (b) at least raises
the required privilege of an malicious actor to a server infrastructure
admin of an explicitly allowed host.
A more complete defense which still works when faced with
a malicious server requires changes in upstream Finch;
see https://github.com/sneako/finch/issues/224
E.g. *key’s emoji URLs typically don’t have file extensions, but
until now we just slapped ".png" at its end hoping for the best.
Furthermore, this gives us a chance to actually reject non-images,
which before was not feasible exatly due to those extension-less URLs

Objects who got updated would just pass through several of the MRF policies, undoing moderation in some situations.
In the relevant cases we now check not only for Create activities, but also Update activities.
I checked which ones checked explicitly on type Create using `grep '"type" => "Create"' lib/pleroma/web/activity_pub/mrf/*`.
The following from that list have not been changed:
* lib/pleroma/web/activity_pub/mrf/follow_bot_policy.ex
* Not relevant for moderation
* lib/pleroma/web/activity_pub/mrf/keyword_policy.ex
* Already had a test for Update
* lib/pleroma/web/activity_pub/mrf/object_age_policy.ex
* In practice only relevant when fetching old objects (e.g. through Like or Announce). These are always wrapped in a Create.
* lib/pleroma/web/activity_pub/mrf/reject_non_public.ex
* We don't allow changing scope with Update, so not relevant here
Objects who got updated would just pass the TagPolicy, undoing the moderation that was set in place for the Actor.
Now we check not only for Create activities, but also Update activities.
* rejected_shortcodes is defined as a list of strings in the
configuration description. As such, database-based configuration was
led to handle those settings as strings, and not as the actually
expected type, Regex.
* This caused each message passing through this MRF, if a rejected
shortcode was set and the emoji did not exist already on the instance,
to fail federating, as an exception was raised, swiftly caught and
mostly silenced.
* This commit fixes the issue by introducing new behavior: strings are
now handled as perfect matches for an emoji shortcode (meaning that if
the emoji-to-be-pulled's shortcode is in the blacklist, it will be
rejected), while still supporting Regex types as before.
