I have a question about #activitypub :
Is there a method for: Following from account xyz only post of a certain type (e.g., images) or a certain hashtag (#abcd).As an example: I would like to be able only to see the comics that a comic artist posts, but not their further opinion. (type is only image)
Another example from the sender side: I am a music group and I would like to invite people to: "Follow #concert_announcement for @mycrazycoolband"
Maybe @benpate knows about this?

@benpate Now I think about this 10 minutes longer, this seems like something that one can be done on the client side, right?

@DePemig The filtering could be done on the client side. But if I were to implement this in server-to-server context, I would probably add a new property to
Followactivity, e.g.filter. -

If filters are static, they could be implemented as groups / circles.

This is one of the features, I want to implement with fedi-herds.
The main current obstacle for me is: How would you want to specify the filter rules? One would need to develop a way to describe filters on Objects / Activities. Solutions like Pleroma's MRF are just "let's write code".
If you want to allow users to write filters, you want a more limited DSL...

@helge @DePemig For hashtags we need a way to say "give me all
Notes wheretagcontains an object withtypeequal toHashtagandnameequal totagname"There is a FEP by @mariusor that describes collection filters: https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/6606/fep-6606.md. I guess we can re-use those conventions for lists
Another FEP is https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/5bf0/fep-5bf0.md, but I think it doesn't have implementations

Hey Gilles! It looks like several other *far more knowledgeable* people have already chimed in, but yeah.. this would probably be best as a filter on your client or your own home server.
I *think* Mastodon already does something kinda like this.. allowing you to filter out boosts from accounts you follow. It's a nice add that we could probably expand on.
