When you look for an Actor profile on Mastodon, and the Actor doesn't have any previous followers from your instance, Mastodon will fetch the Actor to show a profile, but won't fetch activities. So it shows an empty profile with a tiny message saying you need to go visit the remote profile if you want to read previous activities.
This has been surprising to people testing Sutty + Social Inbox.
But if the Social Inbox resends some activities when a new instance is detected, we can prevent confusing all users from that instance. Only the first one :P
@RangerMauve mentioned they're tracking an issue on Mastodon that could solve this entirely, could you link it here?
