New federated testing instance for NodeBB

For awhile now we've hosted https://try.nodebb.org as our demo instance for people to see a plain NodeBB instance.
I have added a federated category on that instance now. You can of course still make test posts to this instance, but you can also feel free to fill @federated@try.nodebb.org with garbage instead
Please note that the "try" instance of NodeBB is reset every 24 hours, which means all follow relationships, content, etc. will only last at most that long. If you follow the category or an account on that instance, those categories/users will "forget" you followed them.

@julian is that a good idea? Wouldn't that get try.nodebb.org blocked?

https://activitypub.academy is another example of a test instance that is regularly cleared.
Either way I take no offense if try.nodebb.org gets blocked here and there

interesting...after doing a test here and posting for my first time on piefed I see one difference that is clear.
If I make an edit to my post on Mastodon while replying to something on NodeBB it will update NodeBB with the new edit.
Updating the post on piefed doesn't happen though after I make an edit, at least not immediately.
Perhaps I should check later to see if anything new has happened.
Perhaps this is by design.
