@iso@lemy.lol what’s a “lemmy-like” PM :laughing: I think this explains why I can’t log into the site.

I think the FEP process is overly complicated for what it is, but it’s definitely helpful if you have multiple implementors on board.

The easiest (but least accessible) solution is to document something on your own site, but that lacks the social proof that a finalized FEP has.

Just some food for thought 🙂 I’m looking to create an FEP for cross posting and would love to get the entire threadiverse dev community involved.

@rimu@piefed.social interesting, how does this differ from tags?

Edit: I see the other post you made. I’m interested in this but hoping you’ll write up an FEP for this so it is more easily implemented by others.

@melroy@kbin.melroy.org NodeBB here, agreed.

It really is the most succinct nickname to describe the type of software we are… and I feel that outweighs possible association with Threads.

Let’s clarify something here. Mastodon follower only posts don’t have the “public pseudo user” addressed, do they?

That’s the important piece that this whole thing hinges upon

If it is present, Mastodon is a fault. If not, Pixelfed messed up.

Am I mistaken?

For example, a followers-only post is addressed to the followers collection of the author, at minimum. When NodeBB sees this, it doesn’t even consider it public, because the public pseudo user isn’t addressed. We also have no concept of “followers only”, but we handle them just fine.
