Further thoughts:
Sending an announce of an ActivityPub object that has already been shared via a create works well for some platforms but not that well for others. Whether the boost shows up in a Mastodon timeline, is highly depending on which app someone is using as well as the way the target ActivityPub software handles not showing the same object twice within a time frame.
Another more strict way of making sure the event shows up in the timeline of followers again would be sending a automatically composed note that links to the event, but this is not in the scope of the pull request.
