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.
Hello world!
Replying from a Lemmy instance, via Thunder. Hello!
We need more forums again!
How does federation work? Do you subscribe to a community or something and it appears as a forum subsection? Likewise how do you post to a community, magazine, whatever mastodon has etc?
Hello from the interwebz. All your base are belong to us
@zoldyck@lemmy.world lol, jokes on you, we dont have any members yet haha. Or from a different perspective: all of the fediverse userbase belongs to us. . . 😈
Radical. I wonder if you can post a screenshot of how it looks from the forum side and have it show up in Lemmy.
It's a linear view, in case you were wondering
That's terrific! Gotta get to nodeBB
i still can't get over how cool federation is
It's me, the same person - just commenting from Lemmy/piefed. hello me!
Hello you!
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
Well, nice to see this post come up. Hello!
@julian@activitypub.space hello! And I must say, thank you for patiently answering all my nodeBB questions lately! You've been a real help :)
Also, thank you for creating this wonderful open source software!
Did you document the setup? I'm interested in hosting this.
Hello from piefed! Cool project
Hi from..somewhere, somewhen
Signed,

NodeBB seems like a really cool thing. Forums never should have been abandoned!
USEnet would like a word.
Some forums still exist, actually.
Yeah, there are some I still follow. Love to see that they're still kicking, here and there.
Test?.... TEST!
Works for me
Hi from ... something
What is nodeBB? A lemmy or piefed alternative or a whole different thing altogether?
@testaccount372920@piefed.zip it's forum software. So I'm building a standalone forum, but am going to have a few categories that connect to the fediverse for communities that complement ours :)
Traditional, old school forums.
They've been around forever but just recently become federated software.
Test works 😅
Hi from Lemmy 👋

Hello there nodebb
Popped up in (self-hosted) Piefed just fine!
I see it from PieFed.Social. I'd absolutely love it if we got more FV content here, such as NodeBB. :D
Hey there!
nice!
Ey bb
Hi from Piefed
Yes, it's working.
