Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Discourse and Flarum are good mobile ready open-source forums.
Open-source Oauth providers are not that common, but Gitlab and Gitea have it and Nextcloud also but it is a bit buggy. There are also some stand-alone implementations that can be linked to OpenLDAP or a SQL database. But IMHO that kinda defeats the purpose I outlined above as rarely do you already have an account with a related open-source service. Thus you need to create an account anyways.
However I think Fediverse platforms could very well offer more Oauth2 login buttons with popular commercial services and as long as it is purely optional I don't really see a problem with that.
