some forums that use NodeBB, will be interesting to see if they enable federation

Agree, Discourse, another forum software also works on ActivityPub support. Also NodeBB seems to federate pretty well with MBin, does it federate fine with Lemmy?

Good to see.
In theory, a lot of forum software could bolt ActivityPub on. It should be an interesting time now we have proof of concept.
There is a W3C's SWCG ActivityPub based Forums and Threaded Discussions Task Force. The NodeBB forum for it.

Thanks for linking links that work on Lemmy! I'm unsure why mine don't work on it

because you used
/m/instead of/c/, but really the format!communityname@instancename.comshould be used instead of trying to manually make URLsFitik@fedia.io · 5 pts · 1y
I just typed
!magazine@instance, it has always worked before, I might create a bug report on GitHubDie4Ever@programming.dev · 7 pts · 1y
oh you let it autocomplete, check the source of your post
at least on Lemmy, it works better if you don't let it autocomplete... kinda silly, but there's a bug report for that on the Lemmy side, idk about Mbin

I'd be surprised. They've actually been federating for months now. Maybe they've seen a rush of signups kicking the tires, and that's expanded the firehose?
Die4Ever@programming.dev · 8 pts · 1y
their server is down right now, but it did federate with lemmy.ml before going down https://lemmy.ml/c/activitypub@community.nodebb.org
https://programming.dev/c/nodebb-development@community.nodebb.org
also you can read their announcement from their Mastodon profile @nodebb@fosstodon.org
edit: it's back up, to see the announcement post in Lemmy format, put this in your Lemmy's search: https://community.nodebb.org/post/102756
it's from !nodebb-development@community.nodebb.org

@Fitik Fantastic news!

@michaelc@social.rootaccess.org Agree, they have 15k stars on GitHub, so seems pretty substantial to me

Is there a secure way to install it? Or does it use npm?
