@reiver@mastodon.social no, I am not, I have just been following the fediversehouse hashtag

@eeeee it is likely due to audience. So, what happens on your end is you make a topic and mention the Lemmy community. When NodeBB federates that post out, the Lemmy community is included in the mentions, but it also specifies your category 18, World Chat, in audience. If Lemmy sees that, and it doesn't know about that community already, it will drop the activity immediately. If it does, then it will likely slot the post into the "World Chat on isurg.com" community on that Lemmy instance. Lemmy removed audience checking, so this might be a non-issue. Once that Lemmy instance updates to the latest version, it'll hopefully post to the correct community. That's a tricky one, though, because which community should it post to? "Medicine" on mander.xyz, or "World Chat" on isurg.com?

@openrisk@mastodon.social not a bad idea. NodeBB actually already does this. We have a configurable max on hashtag usage, and so if a post comes in with > 5 (the default) we just remove everything after the fifth hashtag. They're still in the post content, but only the first five count in indexing, etc.

@silverpill@mitra.social I think given the addressing limitations of collections, this by-proxy method of determining who to send an as:Follow to makes sense as a stopgap measure until ActivityPub's next version...

@wjmaggos@liberal.city that's true for Mastodon, but not for other servers with more of a community focused aspect, like NodeBB.

@CWSmith your user resolves with the URL https://community.darkscribes.com/user/cwsmith ... but the ActivityPub response identifies it as https://communuty.darkscribes.com/uid/1, which is not the correct URL. Please update config.json's url so the typo is fixed and test again

@j12t@j12t.social ah, it was a small group, just myself @trwnh@mastodon.social, @dmitri@social.coop, and @tallted@mastodon.social for the latter half.
