@rysiek Ooh nice. Some communities that gotten used of using only Discourse this would open some doors 😄

@rysiek we at @edgeryders are very fond of Discourse. What does ActivityPub support mean in practice?

This is a federation-level event. :blobcatwinktongue:

@rysiek Nice! Personally, the biggest change I'm waiting for is Tumblr adding activitypub support.

@rysiek wdym, discourse has been on fedi for... *Sees link* oh

Let’s say for example Facebook implemented Activitypub, wouldn’t that be bad for us (Mastodon, Pleroma, etc… users) since Facebook needs to know who commented on who’s post or followers maybe relations between users, wouldn’t that make it easier to scrap data from Mastodon easily you know what am I talking about it’s Facebook.

@rysiek I will federate

@rysiek what does Discourse do?

@rysiek my primary interaction with Discourse instances are user forums for a couple programming langs

I think it'd be super interesting to be able to post a Q there and "mirror" it on my feed, or vice versa, to get cross-pollinating answers from both places based on replies to each

Obv that's not likely how the feature is going to work in practice (and maybe shouldn't, thinking abt trolls and the way blocking works) but it's a cool idea

@rysiek @feditips

Nice.

But will it have Full Text search that so many fediadmins seem to think everyone needs?

@rysiek Lol I thought Snap were trying to federate with Flathub and other Flatpak remotes haha

@rysiek

i don't trust people with only 6 flags in their bio.

you're such a bad npc..you don't even have a rainbow flag !

@rysiek cool. haven't read the news on this yet, but this tracks with what I've seen of Discourse
