Description
https://github.com/Automattic/wordpress-activitypub/blob/848862913570c09f9d26170ce71c5b1f0a9e381c/includes/class-comment.php#L787
For example GatherPress uses an `type__in` to actually do a `type__not__in` for filtering out their RSVP comment type due to performance reasons. But the ActivityPub plugin just stops filtering out Likes, Quotes or Boosts in that case. So when both plugins are installed I get a lot of "... likes this" comments showing up in the frontend.
