Just to let you guys know, we just merged the PR that allows a Discourse category to follow any actor in the fediverse, including other Discourse categories. Yes, that means you can now federate a category between two (or three, or more) Discourses. There’s a few more PRs in the pipeline as part of this phase, but that was a big one. Here’s a video me federating across two Discourse instances and a Mastodon instance running on my computer
Seems a little rough around the edges still w.r.t. names. Angus’ external names are different/wrong on the discourse instances. It seems to be federated correctly though as mastodon shows the usual user@domain handle.
Pretty cool!
