We calculate presence updates for application services based on the users that application service is interested in. For each of these users, we determine which presence updates they are set to receive, compile that into a list, and then send every update from the list to the application service. However, because a single presence update can cause a notification for many different users, we're likely to end up with lots of duplicated presence updates being collected here. Currently, all of these are sent to the application service. By using a Set, this deduplication happens automatically.

This wasn't necessary, but mypy complained that 'events' could be both a List and a Set of JsonDict. So rather than define it with a Union type as such, I figured it'd be best to convert the other methods to use Set as well. We may even eliminate other duplicates in the process.

This looks plausible, but I have some questions since I'm not super familiar with this code.

Should this really be a set or do we want to de-duplicate based on user ID?

This feels like it being a set might not de-duplicate a lot since the object embeds a list of user IDs?

Looks like we forgot about this one. Is it worth resurrecting @anoadragon453? |

Let's close it for now since it's ancient. One day I may return to finish it up. |

Mostly addresses problem 2 of #10836 (comment).
We calculate presence updates for application services based on the
users that application service is interested in. For each of these
users, we determine which presence updates they are set to receive,
compile that into a list, and then send every update from the list
to the application service.
However, because a single presence update can cause a notification
for many different users, we're likely to end up with lots of
duplicated presence updates being collected here. Currently, all of
these are sent to the application service.
By using a Set, this deduplication happens automatically.
