hello from Lemmy!

@frankm@radforum-duesseldorf.de said in NodeBB v4.0.0 — Federate good times, come on!:

Is the nodebb forum down?

It was for a bit, sorry about that! Some rather big names reshared this post and our small server fell over for a bit

@julian

BlueSky and Threads is NOT the #fediverse it is the opposite of.

@julian Welcome to the network! Fediverse is the real vision of the internet!

Bulletin boards (a.k.a., "forums") have never gone away. Actually, they're more popular than ever.

Reddit, for example, is basically a giant bulletin board.

Facebook Groups are forums -- bolted onto Facebook itself -- and probably a major reason people still use Facebook.

Numerous help desk software, such as Zendesk, use bulletin boards as a major selling point of their platform.

And the reason why @nodebb@fosstodon.org federating is such a big deal is because a major request many people have regarding the #Fediverse is bulletin board capabilities. This now exists with NodeBB 4.0.0 -- which was just released today.

@julian

Congratulations! That's really cool! Looking forward to see this feature added to Discourse and other BBs as well!

@julian I'm excited!! This is how I wanted to hear about nodebb!!

3 things:
- is @luceos flarum coming soon also?
- the nodebb yunohost package has something weird going on cause i cannot find where is my admin account and if i have one at all lol
- congratulations @julian !

@ex_06@puntarella.party a lot of the one-click services for NodeBB are run by third parties, so you'll have to reach out to them for help.

I don't usually recommend one or the other, but I do know @cloudron@social.cloudron.io is on the fediverse...

@julian
Fantastic news!
Greetings from Mastodon.

@julian this is really neat.
