@alberto_cottica but from what I see in the Discourse thread, it might not be enabled by default. Which is a good thing — you don't want existing forums to suddenly start spilling content all over fedi, that would be a surprising change in privacy expectations. @rysiek@mstdn.social @alberto_cottica@mastodon.green @edgeryders@mastodon.green Last I saw, this was going to be a one way federation, with AP content getting pulled in to Discourse, but not the other way around. |
@alberto_cottica in practice it means it should pretty seamlessly federate with any other Fediverse instance.
In other words, every Discourse forum will be able to become a Fediverse instance, and federate with Mastodon, Akkoma, Pixelfed, Lemmy or any other kind of Fediverse instance.
Implementation details are till unclear, so not all is clear yet.
