Happens commonly for e.g. replies to follower-only posts
if no one one your instance follows the replied-to account
or replies/quotes of deleted posts.
Before this change Masto API response would treat those
replies as root posts, making it hard to automatically or
mentally filter them out.
With this change replies already show up sensibly as
recognisable replies in akkoma-fe.
Quotes of unavailable posts however still show up as if they
weren’t quotes at all, but this can only be improved client-side.

They do nothing. As documented[1] only three specific
options regarding timeouts are parsed for individual request
and none of them is set by AdapterHelper, only pool-specific options.
In particular this means we always relied on Mint’s default CA cert
verification based on queries to the CAStore package (which we include).

It required a bunch of and even call-specific boilerplate
and is not necessary since we can just capture the real logger
as laready done in other tests.
While its data was included in healthcheck responses,
it was not used to determine the healthy status
and for informational purposes Prometheus metrics,
ObanWeb dashboard or the Phoenix live dashboard are all better fits.
In particular, the data shown in healtcheck responses had no temporal
information, but there’s quite a difference between X failures scattered
across many days of uptime and X failures within a couple minutes.
If the id of another activity type was used
it would show the post referenced by the activity
but wrongly attributing it to the activity actor
instead of the actual author.
E.g. ids of like activities can be obtained from
pagiantion info of the favourites endpoint.
For all other activity types the id would need to be guessed
which is considered practically infeasible for Flake UUIDs.
This should’ve been mostly harmless in practice, since:
- since the activity has the same context as the original post,
both the original and misattributed duplicate will show up in the
same thread
- only posts liked by a user can be misattributed to them,
presumably making it hard/impossible to associate someone with
content they disagree with
- by default only the liking user themself can view their like history
and therefore obtain IDs for their like activities.
Notably though, there is a user seting to allow anyone to browse
ones like history and therefore obtain like IDs. However, since
akkoma-fe has no support for actually displaying those, there might
be no actual users of this features.
This is more intuitive for users.
On the flip side, this makes the API more confusing
since now min_id/max_id no longer correspond to ids returned in the
response and only link headers can be used to traverse all response
pages. However, Mastodon already does this according to its
documentation, so clients should already handle this well.
The only other usage of get_follow_requests_query is only interested
in the total count of requests (from active users), thus changing its
select part is safe.
Also gets rid of (outside tests unused) User.get_follow_requests.

The old approach required adding a special virtual field
to any table potentially needing such foreign-id pagination and
also still required manually sorting according to pagiantion settings
since the pagination helper does not know whether
this virtual field was set or not.
Using lists with each entry containing the pagination id and the actual
entry insterad allows any table to use this mechanism unchanged and
does not require manually sorting.
Since it was unused, this also drops the pagination mode paramter from
fetch_favourited_with_fav_id.
Furthermore, as a side effect of this change a bug in the favourite
benchmark is fixed. It used to incorrectly attempt to use IDs of
the liked objects for pagination instead of the like IDs as advertised
in Link headers.
Split into scheduled (intentionally delayed until a later trigger date)
and available (eligible for immediate processing but did not yet start).
This will help in diagnosing overloaded instances or too-low queue
limits as well as expose configuration mishaps like
https://akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/akkoma/issues/924.
(The latter by violently crashing the telemetry poller process while
attempting put_in for a non-configured queue creating well visible logs)
Instancce stats are cached only renewed every 5 minutes anyway
and IO stats are cumulative over the entire runtime so no info
is lost.
Polling those every 10s is wasteful and the next commit will add a
periodic measurement which is (comparetively) more costly to compute.
Overall fairly minor changes, but most importantly the Host header passed to the backend is set to `$host` instead of `$http_host` as HTTP/3 no longer uses the Host header, leaving it unset. `$host` will fallback to the `server_name` value in that situation while `$http_host` doesn't.

It’s only used in one place and there not even all of
its functionality is needed. It’s not only simpler and shorter,
but easier to understand if Tesla’s keyword list is just inlined.
The only useful bit which is now migrated to Pleroma.HTTP is
addition of the user-agent header (except, sometimes, in tests)
The web_push_encryption lib assumes HTTPoison semantics
which is why we also need to convert the header format.
Inspecting the libraries source shows that Tesla won’t
understand the options anyway and its only used to enable TLS/SSL.
When this was ported from Pleroma in
5da9cbd8a5
we did not take into acount that Akkoma’s and Pleroma’s
HTTP backend take different options.
There’s no need for the :pool option
and enforcing a body limit on download
is currently not possible with Finch
Ideally we’d use a single common HTTP request error format handling
for _all_ HTTP requests (including non-ActivityPub requests, e.g. NodeInfo).
But for the purpose of this commit this would create too much noise
and it is significant effort to go through all error pattern matches etc
too ensure it is still all correct or update as needed.
The Signature module now handles interaction with the HTTPSignature library
and the plug everything related to HTTP itself. It now also no longer needs to be public.
To achieve this signatures are now generated by a custom
Tesla Middleware placed after the FollowRedirects Middleware.
Any requests which should be signed needs
to pass the signing key via opts.
This also unifies the associated header logic between fetching and
publishing, notably resolving a divergence wrt the "host" header.
Relevant spec demands the host header shall include a port
identification if not using the protocols standard port.

While the previous version was already plenty fast for smaller instances
there seems to be a more-than-linear slowdown for large instances.
These prefilters should (hopefully) not exclude anything in need of
fixing, but seem to already cut down significantly on the overall
processing time.
