    We're quite literal about it. A group is literally just a collection of users. It doesn't afford them anything special beyond a badge.

    However, because it's quite low level, you can do a lot with groups. The privilege system works with groups, so you are able to restrict access to some/all categories based on user groupings.

    Hmm.... 🤔

    What would you propose? Got code?
    Something SQL maybe? Like mysql? I would touch nothing thats licensed on SSPL

    As mentioned above, NodeBB supports PostgreSQL. A far superior RDBMS to MySQL, imho, btw.

    What kind of code?

    Code requisite for "porting" nodebb db backend to whatever your dream data store may be. 🙂

    I, too, am none too keen on SSPL. While I am sensitive to both sides of this issue, in reality the SSPL affects me personally minimally. Meanwhile, MongoDB does a kick ass job. Hence I am electing an "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" posture.

    That said, next NodeBB deployment will likely take a closer look at PostgreSQL.
