i see a lot of news about australian politics, news of seattle, darmstadt, brazil, … all places where i don’t live, where the posts aren’t relevant to me. it would be cool to be able to tag posts/communities with a geographical location so i can easily filter which posts are / aren’t probably relevant to me. in one setting in my profile, instead of having to block each community individually (there’s hundreds of them at this point)
Why invent new stuff for this? AS2 has the
locationproperty andPlaceobject, which imo should be used for this. It’s not like the request here requires functionality not enabled by those.here’s a link to the ActivityStream documentation about this: https://www.w3.org/TR/activitystreams-vocabulary/#places
Also here’s a link to the location property.

oh thanks for making me aware of those :)
