if you maintain a mastodon fork that does not closely follow mastodon main, or the stable-3.3 or stable-3.4 branches, and you're worried the security patches might take some work to apply to your code, hit me up and i'll try to have a look ahead of release (i will not give you the patches or any info about them before release, but if i find the time to do so i can adapt them if they need work)

@mariusor @dansup @activitypub note that we are already using endTime in Mastodon and compatible software for communicating when a poll (Question) ends

@mariusor @dansup @activitypub how do you distinguish between a Question for which answers aren't accepted after a certain time (current use of endTime) and one which should be deleted after a certain time?

@dansup @mariusor @activitypub having an attribute is useful to ensure deletion even if a Delete activity doesn't reach the recipient (distributing Delete to every actor who knows about the activity is a notoriously difficult problem), but yeah, you'll have to send a Delete anyway, you can't expect implementations to handle something that hasn't been defined yet

@dansup @mariusor @activitypub note that i'm not sure Mastodon would implement it, as it may be a pain to do so efficiently, but having such an attribute would at least make it possible
