   @arcanicanis If I'm not mistaken, conversation came from OStatus which both Mastodon and Pleroma supported in the past

   This is what FEP-7888: Demystifying the context property proposes. I heard it is implemented in Streams

     Why do we have both context (not to be confused with @context) and conversation? Is that another Mastodonism or Pleromaism? context is defined in the ActivityStreams vocabulary specification, while conversation is not. In production implementations, they seem to just reference the same value.

     It would have been nice to just have either of those resolve to a Collection of some sort, such as containing all the objects within that context, and instead of needing another property (replies) to be a little less redundant.
