So, this URL does work: https://forum.agnos.is/category/[email protected]
Maybe it has something to do with the activitypub category being a sub-category of nodebb development?
@[email protected] no, that didn't matter. There is no concept of nested categories in ActivityPub yet.
But the issue seems legitimate, I can't access the ActivityPub category from a test Mastodon server either.

@[email protected] I was able to access it from a Lemmy instance. So it is federating, at least partly. But interesting to know that Mastodon has issues with it...
One thing that might be helpful is that NodeBB gives an invalid ID error when trying to follow the category via the sync function in admin settings. Stack trace shows it's the error being thrown when trying to follow (activitypub.js line 43).

@[email protected] thanks, can you try again? For whatever reason the handle-to-cid association was lost, and I'm not sure why. I've manually restored it now.

Yep, shows up now on my end. Maybe check other categories too?

Were there other categories breaking?

@[email protected] Yes, maybe? https://forum.agnos.is/category/[email protected] for example. Maybe it's not federated? Since I don't see anything about what fediverse handle to use like in the ActivityPub forum.

That's correct, that category wasn't federating, but it is now

@[email protected] Cool, I can now load it. Another question: I have a bunch of lemmy communities (and also a few "null" entries) stuck on "pending" in the category synchronization settings. Pressing remote/delete doesn't do anything. Is there an easy way to get rid of them by editing the database?
Also, are there plans to merge the federation synchronization and new remote category following stuff together into one cohesive set of functionality?

Most likely I will need to develop proper support for cross-posting (at least locally), and that would work well with the remote category functionality, so that topics are cross-posted to the synchronized category, instead of moved.

@[email protected] It would be good for outgoing posts if cross posting is used for synced categories. But it doesn't solve the problem of incoming posts. For that, it would make sense to still slot incoming posts based on the sync setup. But there is still the problem of Lemmy not accepting follows from category actors.
