  NodeBB v4.0.0 can't see /world
  J julian

  @[email protected] you'll have to manually add the /world route to the navigation, since you are coming from an older install.

  You can drag the item from the preconfigured list in the ACP.

  User Agent Used for Federation?
  J julian

  @[email protected] thanks for pointing this out, let me get the user agent updated to report the hostname.

  NodeBB right now only reports 4.x though. Exposing the full version could aid targeting for malicious users in the event of a security vulnerability.

  Any plans to add 'actor' to Create activities from nodebb users?
  J julian

  @freamon please let me know if this continues to be an issue. The Create should always have an actor, I agree.

  Unable to view the profile page of some remote accounts
  J julian

  @[email protected] thanks for reporting. It's a persistent bug that has been evading capture for some time.

  For whatever reason, occasionally some accounts will lose their handle-to-id association in the database. That is why you are not able to access the profile page, because NodeBB doesn't think it exists anymore.

  For now the workaround is for me to manually reassociate, but I still have not figured out the root cause of the issue.

  NodeBB v4.0.0 — Federate good times, come on!
  J julian

  @[email protected] if you copy the topic url directly, it won't show up yet.

  You'll have to use the directly post link (in the timestamp), e.g. https://community.nodebb.org/post/102756

  I'll look into making this a bit more seamless

  NodeBB v4.0.0 — Federate good times, come on!
  J julian

  @[email protected] if we're splitting hairs, I'd actually argue that Reddit, Lemmy, PieFed, and mBin are actually link aggregators.

  testing fediverce with community.nodebb.org
  J julian

  @[email protected] you can search for individual posts by taking the post url, not the topic. So copy the URL from the timestamp itself (e.g. https://community.nodebb.org/post/102756)

  I'd like to add better support for topic URLs soon though.

  J julian

  @[email protected] ah, then I'd say mission accomplished.

  NodeBB v4.0.0 — Federate good times, come on!
  J julian

  @[email protected] a lot of the one-click services for NodeBB are run by third parties, so you'll have to reach out to them for help.

  I don't usually recommend one or the other, but I do know @[email protected] is on the fediverse...
