Friends page containing ActivityPub boosted copies of my own posts, attempts to decorate them with sharing plugin?

[alecmuffett]

I have/use the Jetpack Sharing plugin.

I made a post: https://alecmuffett.com/article/17221

It was boosted by a friend: https://mastodon.neilzone.co.uk/@[email protected]/109655897059886346

The boost came back to me, and when rendered picks-up (in a very ugly manner) the Jetpack Sharing plugin:

https://alecmuffett.com/friends/mastodon.neilzone.co.uk-neil/17225/

(screenshot since not public)

[alecmuffett]

The article as part of the JSON feed looks sane:

curl -H "Accept: application/activity+json" 'https://alecmuffett.com/wp-json/activitypub/1.0/users/2/outbox?page=1'

...so I presume that the issue is the /friends page rendering is picking up that alecm is the author and is instigating the plugin?

If you look at curl -LH "Accept: application/activity+json" https://mastodon.neilzone.co.uk/@[email protected]/109655897059886346a | jq . you can see that the sharing HTML you can see in the screenshot is unfortunately part of the HTML sent by the ActivityPub plugin (see "content" below, scroll to the right):
