Alright, before I go and watch Formula 1 😅, I made two PRs regarding the two “competing” ideas:
(replyto:…)(edit:…) and (delete:…)As a first step, this summarizes my current understanding. Please comment! 😊
I’m still more in favor of (replyto:…). It’s easier to implement and the whole edits-breaking-threads thing resolves itself in a “natural” way without the need to add stuff to the protocol.
I’d love to try this out in practice to see how well it performs. 🤔 It’s all very theoretical at the moment.
Been thinking about it for the last couple of days and I would say we can make do with the shorter (#<DATETIME URL>)since it mirrors the twt-mention syntax and simply points to the OP as the topic identified by the time of posting it. Do we really need and (edit:...)and (delete:...) also?
