I understand wanting to bundle things into AP. Let’s fix the core and not abandon it, right?
But the use case here isn’t in ActivityPub. It happens when I’m visiting a website OUTSIDE of my home server. It’s how we see 90% of the internet.
So building this feature into AS doesn’t make sense.
These interactions need to tie more deeply into Fediverse servers in the same way that the FB “like” button does. That’s what FEP-3b86 does.
(And this fedi UX thing makes your toot seem like a top post in mastodon web UI, not showing further up the thread. Luckily there's 'Open original page' if one is aware of that)
@ just small circles 🕊 It's not Fedi UX. It's Mastodon UX. Big difference.
Here on Hubzilla, I see the whole thread as one right away, all the way to the start post, without having to look at it at its origin.
The only improvement that I'm waiting for is the tree-style view that'll soon be rolled out with Hubzilla 10.4 (Friendica, (streams) and Forte already have tree-style views whereas Hubzilla had a strictly chronological thread view until the recent RCs).

If I Like something on a web site, and that web site has previously stored my preferred handle, just like it. Don't offer me an account picker, don't show me a page, just Like it.
If AP server B on platform C knows my webfinger, send it to My Home Server A and just. do. it.
Eventually this will be a Thing on non-AP web sites (and maybe in the browser), but we should focus on the main AP platforms for now.
This is a small personal instance of Bonfire in the Fediverse.
