Sending a private message without cc causes a 500 error
(community.nodebb.org)
Focused discussion related to ActivityPub integration in NodeBB
@rikudou As far as I understand things, a 'private message' in ActivityPub is Create / ChatMessage, not Create / Note. I think NodeBB wouldn't be the only software to complain if 'cc' is missing from either part of Create / Note (although it's not expected in either part of Create / ChatMessage).
@freamon As others have said, ChatMessage is non-standard. The Create/Note is not particularly great for private messages, but whatever. Anyway, cc is not a required field of Note nor Create, so any software that would complain has a bug.
@rikudou Yeah, sorry, I didn't mean to derail this thread. The GitHub issue was intended to only really be about the 'cc' problem, because it looks like PieFed will have to start sending Create/Note to non-Lemmy platforms anyway, but it'd easier if 'cc' doesn't have to be artificially included to keep NodeBB happy.
