Description

Not sure if this belongs here or in the Text repo @nickvergessen @juliushaertl:

The Activity tab of a Text document shared via link doesn’t show any guest activity. This is a bit confusing if you collaborate with others and it looks like nothing happened:

activity limited again and guests changes not shown

Just for reference, the Versions tab does show the changes, but it’s not clear who did them (cough cough https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/658 ):
activity versions shows more

Research direction

Reproduce the issue from the Activity and Versions tabs of a Text document shared via link, comparing activity from the owner and guests. Trace how the Activity tab obtains and displays events, then verify that guest changes appear there with suitable attribution rather than only in Versions.
