ActivityPub likes work by sending a `Like` activity to the actor's outbox for server-to-server federation. Recipients add this activity to the post's `likes` collection and the actor's `liked` collection to track interactions.
The difference between EmojiReact and Misskey reactions is their federation approach. EmojiReact uses a dedicated ActivityPub activity type, while Misskey reactions use a custom `_misskey_reaction` property within standard activity objects.
Like counts for remote posts become stale because ActivityPub relies on asynchronous delivery of `Like` and `Undo{Like}` activities. These server-to-server federation events can fail silently or arrive out of order across different instances.
To remove a favorite on a Fediverse platform, you send an `Undo{Like}` activity to your outbox. This signals remote servers to delete the interaction from the post's `likes` collection and your `liked` collection.
There are privacy considerations for the `liked` collection because it aggregates a user's favorites into an endpoint. Servers must carefully manage authorization and access controls to avoid exposing sensitive user interaction histories.
