by default just prevent job floods with a 1-seconds
uniqueness check, but override in RemoteFetcherWorker
for 5 minute uniqueness check over all states
:infinity is an option we can go for maybe at some point,
but that would prevent any refetches so maybe not idk.
We were overzealous with matching on a raw error from the object fetch that should have never been relied on like this. If we can't fetch successfully we should assume that the collection is private.
Building a more expressive and universal error struct to match on may be something to consider.
These tests relied on the removed Fetcher.fetch_object_from_id!/2 function injecting the error tuple into a log message with the exact words "Object containment failed."
We will keep this behavior by generating a similar log message, but perhaps this should do a better job of matching on the error tuple returned by Transmogrifier.handle_incoming/1
"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
previously we would uncritically take data and format it into
tags for static-fe and the like - however, instances can be
configured to disallow unauthenticated access to these resources.
this means that OG tags as a vector for information leakage.
_technically_ this should only occur if you have both
restrict_unauthenticated *AND* you run static-fe, which makes no
sense since static-fe is for unauthenticated people in particular,
but hey ho.
Per the XRD specification:
> 2.4. Element <Alias>
>
> The <Alias> element contains a URI value that is an additional
> identifier for the resource described by the XRD. This value
> MUST be an absolute URI. The <Alias> element does not identify
> additional resources the XRD is describing, **but rather provides
> additional identifiers for the same resource.**
(http://docs.oasis-open.org/xri/xrd/v1.0/os/xrd-1.0-os.html#element.alias, emphasis mine)
In other words, the alias list is expected to link to things which are
not just semantically the same, but exactly the same. Old user accounts
don't do that
This change should not pose a compatibility issue: Mastodon does not
list old accounts here (See e1fcb02867/app/serializers/webfinger_serializer.rb (L12))
The use of as:alsoKnownAs is also not quite semantically right here
(see https://www.w3.org/TR/did-core/#dfn-alsoknownas, which defines
it to be used to refer to identifiers which are interchangable) but
that's what DID get for reusing a property definition that Mastodon
already squatted long before they got to it
