so i can not see @morloi s comment on my own web site:
-
@darkpollo I'll have a go at answering some of your questions, until something better comes along.
-
Yes. Here's your reply on another server: link
-
Yes. I tested out creating and then deleting stuff from a remote account, and this forum acknowledged both.
-
Remote users don't get any privileges - their profile on this forum is just a text copy of the one they have on their own platforms. In terms of identifying local vs. remote (visually, at least), you can hover over users and see whether they have an '@' in their name. You could do the same programmatically, but I imagine that there's better ways.

Thank you!That link with my reply redirects me here. Is there a way to read it somewhere else?
Maybe I need to connect with another activitypub account to read it there?@julian
It could make sense to change a little bit the design of the remote users vs the local users, so it is easier to identify. Now that I know that I need to look for the @ andis easier but most people won´t know that.
I really love this new functionality. Thanks again!

I've crowbarred your comment into my dev instance for PieFed instead: https://pythag.net/post/4695#comment_27962

@julian This is really awesome! Forum software federated with Fedi-Power! Cool stuff. I love it

This is great!
Trying to mentally organise how to use it and sync with a mastodon account so everything is "connected and synced".

I've just installed a new instance of NodeBB and it works beautifully. Some questions:
- Is it possible for categories to follow Lemmy communities in their sync settings? I seem to be able to follow Lemmy communities, but the categories are stuck on pending.
- Same for NodeBB categories. Can I sync my own category with remote NodeBB categories?
Edit: the URLs stuck on pending are giving "invalid-id" errors in the log. As in invalid activitypub ids. I pasted the URLs of some Lemmy communities and NodeBB categories.
Edit 2: Found the topic about this. https://community.nodebb.org/post/102818

You should be able to do this, although I may have to double check the logic. There have been reports that it is not working as expected.

I'm wondering, as a stopgap solution, would it make sense to have some kind of rules engine that allows topics coming in from the fediverse to automatically be moved to NodeBB categories? Kind of like a somewhat less elegant sync.
Edit: like automatically assigning incoming topics based on tags seems like a particularly easy solution?

@julian I read this whole thing wondering how NodeBB posts would look from my instance and then clicked your link at the end and realized I'd been reading one the whole time lol. Super cool, hope this takes off!

Sort of a post queue for federated content that needs automatic or manual review before it is automatically slotted in a category.
