Hello, I’m currently setting up a nodeBB forum with some federated Communities. I wanted to test out how this post will work throughout the other instances. If you would be kind enough to leave a comment to see if it works, I’d appreciate it. :)
[Edit] does anybody know if nodeBB has a way to prevent federated upvotes from contributing to forum member specific reputation points?
Actually I fear that if I tag the community, my reply might appear as a new post in the community, rather than a reply in a previous post.
According to this source it may happen that replies from Mastodon simply don’t show up.
as long as it’s a reply to another post I’ve never seen that happen when mentioning the community. What the linked post says is certainly true though, the federation between some platforms like Lemmy or WP and Mastodon doesn’t always seem to be as solid as it is between Mastodon instances or even other platforms that regularly interact with Mastodon.
You were perfectly right, it worked! 🥳 Thank you so much for this extremely useful advice!

OK let me try replying from Mastodon then. If I get it correctly now, the important point is to include also a reference to the community. So now I add that and let’s see… Sorry for using your post for this test.
