@devs it's not only spam, but also that #Forums don't map 1-to-1 to #Microblogging platforms, and how to best integrate both of these domains well in the interoperable #fediverse, is still an ongoing effort.
I'd pose that #SocialHub #ActivityPub community has not benefitted from their long-term desire to become fully #fedi integrated, because of these #challenges.
But this forum exists exactly for that kind of experiments, to find what works and learn from it. Things are improving, but slowly.
This is why the forums don’t syndicate to Mastodon
Twice, in the past, I have thought it would be nice if everyone’s stuff made it out onto social media. Both times, I have enabled syndicating forum topics. Both times it went badly.
We ended up syndicating spam that is easy to remove here, but hangs about in FediSpace forever.
A bit like this:
I’m sure there must be a way to revoke that stuff, but I’m not sure what that way is. So, until we can undo spam that gets syndicated, forum stuff will remain local only. If someone can help me figure out how to unspam social media, I think it would be nicer to take a poll to see if our active members even want our forums appearing on social media.

I have made a Blog Post about my recent relationship with the internet, Technology, and how I think I want to use it going forward.

@ricardo I think discord.
@stefano @ricardo the article mentioned the FreeBSD subreddit and The FreeBSD Forums.
Yorick Peterse shared his post in the sub, where it was very well-received. Pictured: insights that are not visible to the public (I very rarely share such things, doing so seems harmless on this occasion).
No mention of Discord, Twitter, or X.
Also pictured: the wiki for FreeBSD Discord very recently cautioned that the FreeBSD Community Code of Conduct can not be enforced. I do not imagine that this caution relates to any recent misconduct there …
<https://www.freebsd.org/internal/code-of-conduct/>
<https://wiki.freebsd.org/Discord/DiscordServer>
#FreeBSD #Reddit #forums #Discord #community #conduct #misconduct
Caution: The FreeBSD Discord server is managed entirely by volunteers unaffiliated with the FreeBSD Project. The FreeBSD Project has no way of enforcing its code of conduct on the server. The text below was written by the server administrators, not by Project members or officers. …
Screenshot: a moderator view of insights for the post by Yorick Peterse. 95% up-voted.
Have you visited any forums lately? Does the software they use sway your decision incoming back or being active on it?
Do you think that #Forums have served their purpose and it's time to evolve?

General interest mega-boards and forum sustainability
I'm away from my desk for the next few days and so I'll likely be posting more open ended discussion questions.
Recently I've been thinking more about the decline of forums of yesteryear and how hosting a forum has always been rather niche.
That got me thinking about how one of Reddit's "killer features" was that just anybody could create a subreddit. The same could be said about Facebook groups as well.
You don't get that with forums, only the admin can create categories/forums, and by extension that usually limited the rise of general interest boards, and more towards niche topic-focused boards. It also meant that basically every board had a "general discussion" board or "random" board.
Would there be interest in NodeBB supporting something like this... Basically, the ability for anyone to set up a category and instantly moderate it, and build your own sub community inside a community? Does this ruin the magic of forums?
