@julian haha now that reposting from fedi instances is possible, maybe you need to collapse the "... shared this topic N minutes ago", by default in the UI

@julian Amazing stuff.
Congratulations!!
I have some questions, probably because I am still trying to understand this activitypub thing.1- If I write this reply here, that means is now public and can be read on other mastodon/activitypub servers/locations?
2- I saw people replying to you on another mastodon servers and their comments appear on the forum as replies, which is amazing, but, can they delete their messages on their mastodon server? And if they can, will that deletion be sent across and be removed from the database of this forum?
3- I also see that the people that replied, got an user and a profile on this forum, will they know about it? can they login and do something about that user? How do you identify "created social users" from "standard registered users" on your nodebb install?
Thanks!

@darkpollo I'll have a go at answering some of your questions, until something better comes along.

Yes. Here's your reply on another server: link

Yes. I tested out creating and then deleting stuff from a remote account, and this forum acknowledged both.
-
Remote users don't get any privileges - their profile on this forum is just a text copy of the one they have on their own platforms. In terms of identifying local vs. remote (visually, at least), you can hover over users and see whether they have an '@' in their name. You could do the same programmatically, but I imagine that there's better ways.

@freamon you got it all!
In addition, at least on NodeBB, when you tag someone remotely, the full handle appears (e.g. @[email protected])
You can tell local users from remote users in topics because they don't have a status (online, away, dnd, etc.)... They just have a little
icon next to their avatar. -
@[email protected] yeah, no need to visit nodebb anymore!
