consider using AS properties "likes" and "shares" instead of "tags"

Open karadaisy opened this issue 10 years ago • 1 comments

I just came across this extension to AS 1.0 http://activitystrea.ms/specs/json/replies/1.0/ that includes "replies" which Granary does use, but also "likes" and "shares". Currently Granary puts likes and shares under "tags" which I always find a little confusing. I'm wondering whether you think it would be worthwhile to convert to the explicit properties. I'd also like to add one for "quotes" even though that is not listed in the extension.

Converting will likely be tedious but I think it'd be a big improvement for clarity.

hell yes! agreed, this would be a readability win and simplify some chunks of code a bit too.
