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

- Godot would be nice

Great news!
- 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.
- @Emperor@feddit.uk Agree, and now you can follow it directly at !swicg-threadiverse-wg@community.nodebb.org
  Edit: My software doesn't support - symbol, but you can follow it at !swicg-threadiverse-wg@community.nodebb.org
  
  Cool, I was trying to figure out if there was a way to do that.

!support@community.nodebb.org or !activitypub@community.nodebb.org
- 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.com should be used instead of trying to manually make URLs

Ok, which one of you goobers killed the website?
- Lemmy grip of death
- Lmao, might have to do something with this?

  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?
