some forums that use NodeBB, will be interesting to see if they enable federation
announcement post from [email protected] : https://community.nodebb.org/topic/18545/nodebb-v4.0.0-federate-good-times-come-on
Comment below with any other NodeBB communities as people update their servers and enable federation
You can turn federation on and off (and adjust some other fun toggles) directly from ACP > Settings > Federation (ActivityPub).
You must log in or register to comment.
Sync for Lemmy and Jerboa hate hyphens in community names 😭
Ditto for Boost apparently
Seems to work in Voyager.

It would be hilarious if there was an existing “196” NodeBB community. And it federated.
None of that is showing up on my instance, is this just federation being slow on one end or the other? The announcement post you linked isn’t loading for me, either.
If you fetch a community that your instance hasn’t previously heard of, you can typically query the community’s ‘outbox’ collection to get recent posts. So in Lemmy, you get 50 old posts, and then - once someone has subscribed - new posts start coming in.
Different platforms have different formats for their outboxes - Lemmy uses Announce/Create/Page, a.gup.pe and PeerTube use Announce, with a URL that leads to a Note or Video, wordpress uses Create/Article. Because Lemmy already understands its own outbox format, it’s able to get old posts from other Lemmy instances. It doesn’t get old stuff for a.gup.pe, PeerTube, or wordpress though.
So you might be wondering what outbox format nodebb uses - to which the answer is none. The outbox leads nowhere useful (they’re in good company with MBIN on this). Anyway - this is why fetching a nodebb community won’t come with any of its existing posts (but - as mentioned - new stuff will come in for subscribers)
Fediverse Observer keeps a list of NodeBB instances that have federation enabled
I’m getting a 404 in Sync
The pricing of NodeBB goes from $20USD to $100USD between the first two packages. WTAF!?
