Another question @julian , it seems the other instances can edit the title of the thread. What is the purpose of that?
It has reflected on the external instance but not on this site yet.

Im not sure that someone else should be able to change the title of the OPs post?
So if it doesnt propagate that may be a good thing.

Ah just found out its possible to move World posts into a category in the external instances, which is great

It doesn't propagate. It's intentional because other AP software doesn't provide titles.

In those situations, the title is inferred from the content, but it doesn't always end up looking good

So in those situations, editing the title for clarity may be helpful.

@julian in theory, should a nodebb page need to be refreshed to update 'likes'?
downvotes dont seem to be coming over

The page should automatically update. It doesn't always, though. Depends on your local socket.io connection.

Downvotes aren't federating yet.

Is the plan not to federate downvotes?
Downvotes are not always helpful actually, look how reddit gets if you say anything the crowd dont agree with. You can get a overall net negative rating just from one post!

@admin@isurg.org downvotes don't federated currently because few (none?) implementors support them. The protocol does.

NodeBB should support it, it's just less important.

Well have to say, this is working very well.
Congrats @julian on a great job

@eeeee thank you! It's easier to get NodeBB-NodeBB Interop working. It's working with everybody else that's annoying

Hi @julian @admin,
what #activity is it? Like is there https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/#like-activity-outbox.

Update: ah, here we go: https://www.w3.org/TR/activitystreams-vocabulary/#dfn-dislike

@mro@digitalcourage.social Indeed! Also thankfully it's implemented the same way we do it in NodeBB.

Upvotes are separate from downvotes (though the UI and backend arbitrarily limit you from doing this), and you can "unvote", which is like undoing a Like

@julian @admin Lemmy and Mitra support Dislike activity

Many offer downvotes as an option that must first be activated by the user. This is also the case in Friendica.

@feb@loma.ml @silverpill@mitra.social excellent! Dislikes coming soon
