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. :slightly_smiling_face:
Hey there!
Yes, it’s working.
Replying from Lemmy, 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?
I put together a brief explainer here 🙂

This forum is still a work in progress, but you can see at the bottom I have some communities in the “Federated Communities” to test it out.
From there, each topic is an individual post from the community.
hello my friend, commenting as requested.
