@mariusor@metalhead.club and the response gives a Location for the binary file, not an ActivityPub object. That doesn't get created until you post a Create activity to the outbox.

@mariusor@metalhead.club if I have it correct, this gives a couple of benefits. First, the upload is simpler for the client. Second, the upload can be managed by a processor that doesn't need to understand the ActivityPub payload. It can be much simpler. Third, and I don't know if you've said this, but the processor doesn't have to make guesses about where the object id is supposed to go in the JSON-LD.
