## what this affects
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
whenever you embed a Follow, Block, Like, or some other activity where the original id isn't easily on hand, you can embed it as the `object` without an id. in such a case, the shape of the activity becomes semantically significant.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
for example, say you want to remove a follower. you typically do this with Reject Follow. but what do you do if you never stored the original Follow id? you embed it like so
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```yaml
|
||
|
|
id: <some-activity>
|
||
|
|
actor: <you>
|
||
|
|
type: Reject
|
||
|
|
object:
|
||
|
|
- type: Follow # this has no id
|
||
|
|
object: <someone>
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
now ideally you probably *should* be storing the ids for everything... but eh, what can ya do.
