Focused discussion related to ActivityPub integration in NodeBB
@[email protected] correct, there is a bug with sending replies to Lemmy at the moment.
@[email protected] @eeeee the federation issue with Lemmy has been hopefully resolved :hand_with_index_and_middle_fingers_crossed: with the latest commit to develop
Thats great, and your reply shows on Feddit!
I've signed up for a Lemmy instance to try that, waiting on approval. Lemmy has a box so you can type in answer to question, e.g. 'Write a line saying why you want to join this forum' It would be a useful feature addition if nodeBB had this option built in, or on ACP plugins list, because I am still getting a lot of Spam registrations, and without knowing why someone wants to join its still hard to know who to authorise and who to reject
A lot of the effort I'm championing with the ForumWG deals with combating the inability for Mastodon (and other non-1b12 implementors) to federate content thoroughly. A lot of that is due to design decisions that were thoughtfully made, so this isn't a critique, per se.
It really does highlight that 1b12 is actually quite good at what it does (federating content out), and that 7888, et al., would be a great complement for post-hoc backfill.
