The fediverse is amazing!
I can’t get over how cool it is to view my posts from any server. I’m definitely going to use activitypub for my social media I’m planning on making. I was going to use @Discourse , but considering it’s like #GitLab where you are only able to self host and each instance of discourse can’t interconnect makes me kinda sad. But activitypub seems like the only way I feel happy in both ways.

Discourse has ActivityPub support coming via a plugin, IIRC, so it should be an option for Fedizens soon enough.
@[email protected] is also in the process of adding AcitivtyPub support to nodeBB, and it’s really, really cool seeing a traditional forum UX with distributed users on community.nodebb.org.

Hey @[email protected] — yes! You're around at a really great time for forums and the fediverse!
Three of the biggest names in modern forum software (NodeBB, Discourse, and Flarum) have signed on to work on ActivityPub, and we're starting to see the fruits of their (our?) labour now. NodeBB users can be followed, and Discourse and NodeBB categories can be followed.
ActivityPub and the fediverse has really enabled us to go in an exciting new direction, and we're stoked to see where it will take us.
