@julian @astro There are two related unwritten rules of fediverse:

1. Activities should be immutable
2. Activities should be idempotent

Because of (1), the id of activity should be different if the body is different.

But because of (2), it should be ok to process the same activity multiple times.

@silverpill@mitra.social okay, but in the case of the accept, the body is identical, but is only different because of where it sits relative to other activities (e.g. it came after an unfollow therefore it is relevant again)

It makes me think back to why I added dupe detection in the first place. Likely it was to handle Delete spam, but I can't remember anymore.

@julian @astro Is the body really identical? I would expect Accept.object to be different if it is a re-follow

PieFed activities each have a unique ID, with a guid in it.

@silverpill@mitra.social good point! The embedded object likely is unique.
