@silverpill @sabrinkmann @grindhold I guess that’s possible, but it will really blow up the size of objects after a certain point (e.g. if you want to support multiple representations) and makes Type completely useless … plus e.g. if you want to add attachments that mastodon does not understand, you simply cannot.

@Profpatsch @sabrinkmann @grindhold type is not completely useless, it's just an equivalent of a boolean property, for example type: Proposal is another way of saying isProposal: true.
Sometimes types are handy - I don't apply duck typing to activities.

@silverpill
Unrelated: can I lobby you to change FEP names to FEP-human-understandable-shortcut and have the ID just as unique identifier? :)
It’s basically impossible to talk about FEPs with their current hex codes
