    To add a remote community to your forum index, you'll want to go to ACP > Manage > Categories Under the "Add Category" dropdown, you can select the option to add a remote category. [image: 1772125672080-cd6c786d-c376-4b76-a1da-d301074cb142-image.jpeg] Then you can treat them like any other category (re-order, rename, etc.) The page you're on now, the category synchronization, allows a category to follow another category, and automatically cross-post its posts to that category. It also kind of does what you want, but it'll be more straightforward to add the remote community directly.

    Good on you Rimu. If NodeBB implements Activity Intents it'll be because of you.

    so, this is a bit of an abstract mathematical post. I think that a fediverse service consists mostly of three parts: identity provider, data hoster, and feed provider. The data hoster is the machine that hosts the posts and comments and upvote/downvote stats. The feed provider is the service which gives you a nice, scrollable overview over new content for you. This is today the same system that provides the data, but it could be separated, such as having a custom "search engine" that gives you content, that you use independently of where the data is stored. The identity provider basically only makes a proof that "you are you" : you give it your login credentials and it gives you a kind of token that authenticates (proves your identity) to other services. like, i'm on discuss.tchncs.de, but i can post to lemmy.world. this is because the discuss.tchncs.de server says to lemmy.world that i indeed have this account on this server. so they prove my identity in a way. What i argue now is that such an identity providing server is not technically necessary. You could use something like an ~/.ssh/id_rsa file that you generate on your own computer and use that public key to identify yourself on the fediverse. I don't think that this approach has any inherent advantages over how things are being done today, but it could be done that way and that in itself is fascinating. :D

    Can we make federation less dependent on domain names?

    It looks like some issues may arise if/when an instance's domain name changes. Is there any way we can change federation so that we don't need to rely on such a central point of failure?
