NodeBB-ActivityPub Bridge Test Instance

@shoppingtonz@mastodon.social if edits from PieFed aren't reflected here that may be a bug.

@ex_06 @julian although I am very excited about federation, due to my burnout and financial situation I haven't been able to pursue this feature and we dropped it from our NLnet grant. I'm hoping to dive into it again as part of a future 2.x release.

@eeeee there are a few fixes in the pipeline and there's always work on polish (especially for onboarding new admins), but that can really wait for v4.1 Was hoping for before 2025 but there's no rush, I will likely wait until the new year and cut the release sometime in January prior to FOSDEM.

@silverpill@mitra.social that's a good point. Both Lemmy and NodeBB implemented FEP 1b12, which is why those category/community actors share content. So yes, NodeBB's category actors also only share content, and don't produce any of their own.

@julian Many of the comments in this thread are appearing in Hubzilla as being from activitypub@community.nodebb.org instead of the real author.P.S. I'd start a new topic for this but I don't know how remotely.

Please make them visible when listing topics.

@julian @silverpill also your Link.href is being escaped incorrectly

@Stefan Bohacek @jdp23 @julian "Shadow mentioning" is a thing. (streams) and Forte do it to avoid clutter. Mentions don't have to be visible in a post/comment to work.

Interesting. I received a repeat notification from @ActivityPub on my last comment. I suppose that is how you are acknowledging that my post was sent to people following that category. I like it.

To be fair I have this cool software I'm working on that helps me answer that question immediately

Ok, found the problem. It only works with the privilege guests / View Users enabled. I had fediverse / View Users enabled anyway but that wasn't enough. I'm not sure if that's intended? I guess it makes sense in principle…

@kichae@lemmy.ca image attachments should be better handled by NodeBB now

Hi,I think It would be helpful to include examples of common use cases for ActivityPub integration in NodeBB detailed setup instructions with screenshots and troubleshooting tips for potential issues users might encounter. Additionally a FAQ section addressing common questions could be valuable.Thanks

@julian @Fitik Still faster than a multi-billion dollar conglomerate. Congrats!

@BeAware@social.beaware.live The other part of it is... unlike Mastodon, we're not looking for NodeBB to become the app to use to interact with the fediverse. It's certainly something I want out of my use of NodeBB, but what forums are great for are cultivating niche communities based on shared interest. If I'm able to preserve that aspect all while allowing remote content to also interact with the forum, then it's win-win.
