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

@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.

@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.

That was based on a discussion I saw on lemmy several months ago though. I'm not sure if it's still accurate
