OK folks, we need to stop assuming #Mastodon is the entire #Fediverse and expecting its idiosyncrasies to be mandated on everyone else.

There's no such thing as a "CW" in #ActivityPub. A Note can have a summary and a content and if Mastodon wants to display the summary and hide the content that's its problem. There are so many examples of this. Please stop screaming at people just because you think they've failed some kind of Mastodon purity test on an ActivityPub network when they're following the rules of their instance.

@santisbon@fedia.social hiding content behind summary as a CW is also an awkward use of those activitystreams properties. It effectively shuts the door on using summary properly.

What's worse is Mastodon treats summary and content differently depending on whether an as:Note or as:Article is received.
