NodeBB-ActivityPub Bridge Test Instance

It looks like they are indeed AP groups: https://community.nodebb.org/category/gear-engadget@flipboard.com

I did not consider that, you're right

Though if I wasn't clear, what I'm hoping to see is a page similar to the /categories page, but instead of listing local categories, it lists all the remote categories you are following, or to use NodeBB parlance, "tracking".

Perhaps a /world/categories page? So in addition to being able to "pin" them to /world, you can also quickly find all your other watched remote categories there.

Additionally, maybe you could also have a dedicated page for all the remote categories NodeBB is currently aware of, like the /recent?cid=-1 page.

My thinking was that all the remote categories you follow are listed in your /world page - as opposed to being mixed alonside your followed accounts in your /user//following page.

But being able to pin the ones you most care about actually sounds good too.

For some reason, I'm unable to view the profile page of certain remote accounts here at community.nodebb.org.

So far, I've only noticed it with some accounts from my Mastodon instance - particularly, my own account, @AltCode@social.vivaldi.net, and the @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net account, which should be viewable at https://community.nodebb.org/user/altcode@social.vivaldi.net and https://community.nodebb.org/user/vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net respectively. Instead, trying to go to either of those profile pages produces a 404 error; it's weird though, because these accounts used to work fine before.

Sorry if this is the wrong place to report this. I considered creating an issue on the GitHub repo, but at the moment I have no idea if it can affect accounts from other instances (let alone, other activitypub software), or only those from social.vivaldi.net.
