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

julian

@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.

@freamon
Thank you!

That link with my reply redirects me here. Is there a way to read it somewhere else?
Maybe I need to connect with another activitypub account to read it there?

@julian
It could make sense to change a little bit the design of the remote users vs the local users, so it is easier to identify. Now that I know that I need to look for the @ and is easier but most people won´t know that.

I really love this new functionality. Thanks again!

@darkpollo Oh, sorry. It turns out that that link worked because I'm logged in to defcon.social.

I've crowbarred your comment into my dev instance for PieFed instead: https://pythag.net/post/4695#comment_27962

@phenomlab @cagatay long story short, it works, but this community is running NodeBB v4.1, which is slightly different. Should all work fine once v4.1 is released and everybody updates.
