I'm sorry, I was directed here by https://activitypub.rocks but looking into it more I'm actually not sure whether this is public, could someone explain whether it is?

I'm just going to assume it's public for now, since that website is maintained by Christine as far as i can tell and i imagine she wouldn't invite people there if it wasn't public. Anyway, I've been looking into implementing ActivityPub but there is one thing that confuses me regarding ActivityStreams types, in the second example for the attributedTo property, an array contains both a string and a json object, but the specified range is Link | Object.

thought Links were json objects, potentially with properties, like any other, why is a single string also allowed?

That also applies to other properties, for example "actor", I'm misunderstanding something but I'm not sure exactly what.
