Europe can't federate on rented infrastructure. I wrote on why that is in an follow-up blog post to "A Sovereign Europe".

If an ActivityPub Actor is something that has an "inbox" or an "outbox" (i.e., it could have just one or both) then —
Perhaps we should also be talking about "sources" and "sinks", too. Where —
An ActivityPub Source is an Actor with just an "outbox" (and no "inbox").
And, an ActivityPub Sink is an Actor with just an "inbox" (and no "outbox").

And, if this is the case, then every ActivityPub / ActivityStreams library should be on the look-out for "inbox" and "outbox" fields on everything.
Doesn't matter what it is. An "Event", an "Image", a "Link", a "Place", a "Video", even things in other namespaces.

What makes an ActivityPub Actor and Actor?
I think it is probably a bad idea to just restrict it to things with 'type': "Application", "Group", "Organization", "Person", and "Service". Restricting it to just those would mean you couldn't have new actor types (and sub-types) in the future.
So then, do we do it in a duck-typing way? And if "yes", how?
Maybe if something has an "inbox" OR and "outbox" it is an Actor. I.e., it could have just one of those.

Can an ActivityPub 'Place' also be an Actor?

With followers, an outbox, etc.
That could be useful for both real-life places, and fictional places in stories, and in video games.

@knud That said there should definitely be an optional reason field that you can fill out whenever you block someone. Also a duration setting. #FeatureRequest #ActivityPub
