>Most of the platforms have to play ball with quirks and self-interested decisions in Mastodon's implementation of ActivityPub.

Does anyone happen to have examples of things that mastodon chooses do that effect other platforms on the fediverse?

I'm writing a little activitypub server and I often encounter little quirks that make coding your own server frustating.

For example (if I remember correctly) when someone is mentioned Mastodon will send you a Note with something like '@user@server' while with Pleroma sends '@<span>user</span>@<span>domain</span>'

Now this is a stupid example but I think this was what the author meant that platform have to play ball with Mastodon implementation of AP.
