Hello, I’m currently setting up a nodeBB forum with some federated Communities. I wanted to test out how this post will work throughout the other instances. If you would be kind enough to leave a comment to see if it works, I’d appreciate it. :)
[Edit] does anybody know if nodeBB has a way to prevent federated upvotes from contributing to forum member specific reputation points?
[This reply is from Lemmy] I replied from Mastodon, but can’t see my reply on Lemmy 🤔
I see your reply on lemmy!
Thank you for letting me know! If this was the reply you mean, then unfortunately it was from Lemmy :( I still can’t see the reply I sent from Mastodon. Maybe just using the “reply” button there isn’t enough?
You might have to tag the community for it to show up.
Actually I fear that if I tag the community, my reply might appear as a new post in the community, rather than a reply in a previous post.
According to this source it may happen that replies from Mastodon simply don’t show up.
as long as it’s a reply to another post I’ve never seen that happen when mentioning the community. What the linked post says is certainly true though, the federation between some platforms like Lemmy or WP and Mastodon doesn’t always seem to be as solid as it is between Mastodon instances or even other platforms that regularly interact with Mastodon.
You were perfectly right, it worked! 🥳 Thank you so much for this extremely useful advice!
OK let me try replying from Mastodon then. If I get it correctly now, the important point is to include also a reference to the community. So now I add that and let’s see… Sorry for using your post for this test.
Thanks for the tip! let me try that :)
(sorry, thought you were OP)

I didn’t see this edit until just now.
Ah… no, this is not available, but if it is important to you, I would recommend you open a GitHub issue. This could be something toggleable by admins.
@julian@activitypub.space Thank you - I’ll think on it a bit, and possibly do that. I appreciate the reply!
put me in the screenshot
Hello from the interwebz. All your base are belong to us

Hello you!

May you find water and shade
Hello! Replying from an Mbin instance. First time I think I’ve seen a forum software actually federate out! Curious how it looks on your side
Radical. I wonder if you can post a screenshot of how it looks from the forum side and have it show up in Lemmy.
the images are not loading for us, maybe it’s because of the maintenance mode?
It’s a linear view, in case you were wondering


NodeBB seems like a really cool thing. Forums never should have been abandoned!
@emb@lemmy.world I agree. We need to bring back forums.
USEnet would like a word.
It may want a word but what it has are binaries :)
Some forums still exist, actually.
Yeah, there are some I still follow. Love to see that they’re still kicking, here and there.
That’s terrific! Gotta get to nodeBB
