Cult Hello !
# 14:37 
Cult I have a question regarding ostatus and rfc7033
# 14:37 
Cult I can't find anywhere in the rfc anything related to the 'template' entry in the link
# 15:20 
nightpool[m] Cult: I think it may be defined here: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6415 ?

Cult nightpool[m]: it seems to be the rfc for /host-meta not /webfinger but it is true that it can be defined also here as it is related to the host
# 15:33 
Cult mastodon returns also data about link ostatus in the webfinger
# 15:39 
nightpool[m] hm maybe I'm misunderstanding then. I thought the template entry was only in the host-meta document?
# 15:39 
nightpool[m] Mastodon hasn't used ostatus since 2018
# 16:34 
Cult well, I am quite sure they still use it when following a remote account from a click on the 'follow' button on the webpage of a remote instance
# 16:35 
Cult maybe I am wrong, but the template is used at that point

Grishka When I implemented that I simply looked at what mastodon does

Grishka The really-not-good part is that when you're interacting with a post, it doesn't ever really pass you the particular kind of interaction — like, reply, retoot, etc
