This week's edition of @fediversereport is now also visible on the Social Hub Discourse forum!

Now that Discourse can follow WordPress, we can start to look at new interesting uses of federation!

Last Week in Fediverse – ep 67

Last Week in Fediverse – ep 67 People are interested in bridges between Bluesky and the fediverse, it turns out: Bridgy Fed quietly launched in test mode for a few people to try, but already 1200 accounts have signed up …

@[email protected] I think NodeBB can probably follow and display too what's the handle?

Laurens Hof

@julian something strange with the formatting here on mastodon

julian

One thing that I'd love to address eventually is that WordPress (and NodeBB, too) will strip out images and attach them to the bottom, so Mastodon can parse them.

So in your case, the header image gets shoved to the bottom, which is... not ideal.

One thing the ForumWG would like to do is sign on a number of implementors to send Article in these cases, and have them interpret them as intended, as opposed to a Note.

julian

@[email protected] Yes, that's a bug. NodeBB inline parses the URL I posted into a link preview, but it also federates that out

I need to do some refactoring so link preview doesn't trigger on federation.

Laurens Hof

@julian ohh thats awesome!

@julian I’m interested in this too, when or where is the ForumWG?

julian

@[email protected] first Thursday of every month, but between meetings we discuss everything on the fediverse via ForumWG hashtag!

Would you like to be notified of meetings? I can add you to a list.

@julian yes thanks!
