JonathanRDD what the heck... did your account get compromised... that reply has nothing to do with the topic and reads like AI.

Did you know you needed this? Apparently so. It's been a long road.

Society is a construct. You can just ask someone to do a ska cover of Faith of the Heart and they'll say "$300 please" and you give it to them and then you have it. Everyone, give @skatunenetwork.bsky.social your money. They deserve it.

Kadir-Ay-0 not really, no. What are you trying to achieve with limiting the number of sessions?

informapirata indeed! This is configurable under the site-wide ActivityPub settings under "auto categorization rules".

For that site I have hashtags like "ActivityPub" and "fedimod" set up to automatically categorize discussions.

It only matches for discussions that don't already have a category of their own (so, microblog stuff.)

jgrim@discuss.online Pixelfed has no versioning? That's concerning that you have to live on the bleeding edge if you don't want to be outdated.

I do see there are tags, which at least shows some versioning?

Seeing this entire article in full (with inline images) in NodeBB, is so satisfying.

ska there is an issue with category sync with Lemmy, since they do not support categories following their communities.

I'll have to take a closer look at Peertube.

Are you able to follow those users using your local account, not via the ACP?

I suppose you're right in a way. The context owner is not supposed to be set by someone other than the context owner. It's a fallback mechanism intended for better compatibility with Mastodon.

When a group is addressed and it is one of the local NodeBB categories, it will assume control

If it is another group that it knows about but isn't same origin to the author, then no category is assumed.

silverpill@mitra.social yes, it should. Mentioning the category means it will be addressed and NodeBB will slot the received content in the first group object it finds.

projectmoon@forum.agnos.is it'll work better once cross-posting is built into NodeBB I think

eerie silence

you can still have it with NodeBB!

I would say that Pixelfed is closer to the microblog space than it is the threaded discussion space.

It's essentially microblogging except with an image media focus (or video, in the case of Loops.)

To each their own, some people communicate better using pictures, some better over short text, some better over long-form text. There's a space for them all

nutomic@lemmy.ml let me know if I got any of the details wrong. Much thanks to your team for the assist in debugging!

kichae@wanderingadventure.party I'm still at the point where seeing two-way federation working for real between instances is so exciting that it overrides the pain of federation

It all started with a report about federation breaking between Lemmy and NodeBB. I was subconsciously aware that something was going on, but had chalked it up to network issues.

Observed behaviour showed that some remote categories would be receiving content in spurts, with long gaps in between.

I spent the next 3-4 days looking into it, but came up empty. Whatever was happening wasn't throwing any obvious errors, and along the way, I found what I thought was related (it was), but I wasn't sure why: against some Lemmy servers, the "follow"/"unfollow" mechanic would simply stop working, and this would often coincide with gaps in content. In some egregious cases, the flow of content stopped completely!

Unable to make headway, I had to reach out to the folks at Lemmy to figure out what the issue was. NodeBB occasionally sends non-200 level responses depending on the activity. Specifically, the following scenarios:

• A remote user upvoting more than 20 posts in a single day (a spam prevention tactic) causing NodeBB to throw an error, which was caught and returned an HTTP 500 Internal Server Error.
• A Dislike activity, which is not currently handled by NodeBB. In these cases, NodeBB would send an HTTP 501 Not Implemented

When encountering either of these responses, Lemmy would return the activity back to the queue for later delivery and mark a delivery failure. If enough of these (~40) happened within 24 hours, Lemmy would give the instance a time-out and pause delivery completely.

That was it — a quick pair of code updates later, and we started working through Lemmy's backlog of 4.1M activities.

As of 4am this morning, community.nodebb.org is no longer behind lemmy.world.

Fun week. Let's not do that again LOL.

v4.4.2 of NodeBB contains the updated logic for smoother Lemmy federation.

Hey rimu@piefed.social thanks for responding (and sorry for the late reply!)

I am not married to the Announce([Article|Note|Page]) approach, so I am definitely open to Create([Article|Note|Page]) with a back-reference. I think I went the former direction because there is a known fallback mechanism — the Announce is treated as a share/boost/repost as normal. However, sending the Create also is fine I think.

1. However, do we need a backreference? In my limited research, it seems that Piefed, et al. picks the first Group actor and associates the post with that community. If I sent over a Create(Article) with two Group actors addressed, could Piefed associate the post with the first, and initiate a cross-post with the remaining Group actors?
2. Secondly, is how to handle sync. 1b12 relies on communities having reciprocal followers in order for two-way synchronization to be established. On my end since I know it is cross-posted I will now send 1b12 activities to cross-posted communities, but can Piefed, et al. send 1b12 activities back as well, in the absence of followers?

projectmoon@forum.agnos.is basically, yes. It would be a little too involved to upend the entire system to support multiple cids per topic — a lot of our existing code relies on cid being a single value.

This would be an add-on logic of sorts, where each topic has a canonical category, but can also be cross-posted to other communities/categories.

לאצי the usernames work fine locally (that is, on the site itself). It's when interoperating with other sites not running NodeBB where there are issues, it seems
