Send Update activity on profile updates

[Laurin-W]

Problem
As far as I know, there is no activity sent to friends and followers, if you change your profile, is there @srosset81?

Proposal
Listen to WebId and profile changes and send an Update activity to friends and followers.

Note
This might have to be addressed on the ActivityPods side.

It should work but it may be broken.

Hello, I’m interested in working on this issue. Could you confirm if it’s still available for someone to take? If you have any specific guidelines or suggestions for tackling this, please let me know. Thank you!

Hi @Zek1t0, that's very cool to hear!
I'll check if / what needs to be done later today and will give you an update :)

I did recheck and indeed you are right @srosset81. This is actually working, sorry for the noise. The object watcher middleware listens to changes to the WebId document and sends a post to followers (not to users that shared the profile with you though, so this could be another issue to discuss...).

@Zek1t0, if you are interested in doing a contribution in general, here are some issues that might be interesting :)
