This looks good. Just my thoughts on Lemmy, I have various issues with it not federating well to various site at times. I mention this only if you encounter testing issues with Lemmy, more likely the issue is their side. It has some good features but its frustrating as the instance I use appears to have bugs!

A 28-year-old woman presents to the emergency department after a panic attack. She reports rapid breathing and feeling lightheaded. On examination, her respiratory rate is 28 breaths per minute, and her oxygen saturation is 98% on room air. Arterial blood gas results are as follows:

pH: 7.48

PaCO₂: 3.5 kPa

HCO₃⁻: 22 mmol/L

PaO₂: 12 kPa

What is the most likely acid-base disturbance?

The search worked.

Just to say there are a lot of things NodeBB is getting right, in comparison to other Federated sites. Mastodon is ok in some respects but when replies to threads come through, the response appears in the feed alone and out of context! Nodebb shows the whole thread in World, which is far better for following the discussion. As for Lemmy, not sure if the instance Im on is updated to latest version, but some things dont work well. @Julian I only heard about Lemmy via you .. (Sometimes I wish Id never gone there lol) It is good for searching, but its been problematic in other areas. Do you know who codes Lemmy and do they visit here, or is it someone in your federation network?

And, as for Threads, I thought that was going to be Fediverse compatible? I turned the Federate setting on but no messages I tried were ever sent or received! ?

If a site has a 'niche' theme and you want to find people with likeminded interests out in the Fediverse, the searching would be useful. Correct me if I am wrong, but Mastodon doesn't seem to have categories, Ive only seen it on Lemmy. In a way a category on Lemmy is like a nodebb instance, as most nodebb instances are for a certain area. So one might argue that posting on a particular nodebb forum is akin to posting on a Lemmy category?

My first experience with Federation was with Calckey, (fork of Miskey.) I liked some things about it, but there were forks of forks and I never knew in the end which variant of it was best to use :)

Yea, odd, I made a second account on mysite and that follows and unfollows normally. So its a mystery why my first Admin account is doing it differently. Maybe one day we will figure out whats altering the behaviour

Thanks, I tried unfollowing and following again, but its always the same. On this instance it says following and my one it says 'cancel follow request' although the pop up box said 'You are now follwing etc'

Edit: I tried from an non admin account on my instance, that does the normal follow/unfollow, like here.

So wheres the code that makes it different for admins, as that doesnt make any sense to have it different?

.. in [email protected] group nothing arrived There is a post I made earlier (using [email protected]) but not this latest one from isurg@nodebb

Ok I tried this as as a root post

It didnt get there. Whereas I can post into that community with my similar named lemm.ee account

Ok, if I can give specific example. I found a community via lemmy which is interesting. @[email protected] If I want to post a topic in it, can I make a nodebb post and send it there?

Very complicated all this Fediverse stuff! Far from the dream of having one account for everything, I seemed to need an account on every service to get the whole picture. I have now Nodebb, Mastodon, Lemmy, PixelFed and Peertube! I dont know if Im just not using it properly, or if seeing everything from any one of these site is even possible? @julian how far off is the prospect of using my nodebb account for all Federated chat, is that even achievable in long term?

Thanks @Kichae I hadn't realised that functionality was already there!

edit: In ActivityPub, an actor is a JSON-LD file that represents a user, group, application, or service.

Some of the words, make ActivityPub more complicated to understand. Like what is an Actor ? This may be basic to some, but Im still not sure what an Actor is in this context, and why that word was used. Would be grateful if anyone can explain in one line :)

Just my thought, but the whole Delete then Purge has always irritated me. Delete should just be Delete. If a Mod wants to temporarily hide something they could move post, or delete and keep a copy. The only thing Delete then Purge does is add extra step to removing something!
