Notes
Current status: Not yet available to use / launched. Need to get a consensus on comfort regarding opt in/out. DM Darius if super interested in alpha testing.
Capturing data by subscribing to a relay, will become a relay itself in the future.
Eventually it will have enough schemas received from different ActivityPub sending servers that the dataset can be used for developing and debugging purposes using real-world shaped data.
There will be some types of posts that will not / never be included due to the nature of those posts.
Feature request to have the JSON-LD fields included.
Only trusted people will be allowed to do annotations.
Feature request: This shows what servers emit, but would love for ability to know what servers accept as well.
Eventually the data will be released under Creative Commons separate from the app built on top of that dataset.
