   Just updated FEP-0837 draft ("Federated Markets"). The proposal objects are now allowed to have type other than Proposal, e.g. Note. This means servers can publish proposals that are compatible with Mastodon (which only accepts a limited number of types as "posts").

     @arcanicanis The recommended type is still Proposal, but it is not a hard requirement anymore. Flohmarkt is using Note and I think that makes sense. FEP-0837 shouldn't prohibit this.

     That being said, other projects might choose to use attachments. Mitra uses Link attachments that contain references to proposals. For example, my actor object (https://mitra.social/users/silverpill) has this attachment:

     { "href": "https://mitra.social/users/silverpill/proposals/monero:418015bb9ae982a1975da7d79277c270", "name": "MoneroSubscription", "rel": [ "payment", "https://w3id.org/valueflows/Proposal" ], "type": "Link" }

     The href attribute points to FEP--0837 proposal (or a subscription page, depending on the media type in Accept header).

     Perhaps instead for compatibility, it could be an attachment to a Note (maybe even with the Note serving as the alternate representation), rather than having to completely dull down the vocabulary just to play along with Mastodon?
