The activity of the SocialHub community, like all other ‘fediverse-substrate’ bodies, has waned. From an active community to just a forum. Now a decision has to be made for the future of SocialHub. The options are stopping, be just a forum, or revitalize a vibrant community. The last option needs people willing and committed to do so. To step up for the sake of Fediverse Futures.

    Out of curiosity: which categories are currently supported? Is there a way to test interop with Lemmy and kbin?

        Thank you for clarifying. Hellekin may be interested in looking at how Lemmy and kbin are doing it, as having federation compatibility in long-form group communication platforms would really add an incredible amount of value.

        Really, a sticking point is that platforms with Group actors really need to get together and ensure compatibility. This could be truly transformative for the fediverse as a whole.

          Fully agree. Those doing Groups need to be continuously reminded about this compatibility. Tendency to “wheel reinvention” is high and co-creation is also not front and center in thinking with implementers, unfortunately. There’s a Groups FEP created by Lemmy dev. I nudged Flarum, nodeBB and Discourse folks to come together. On SocialHub @trwnh gave some great insights. I hope more FEP’s will be proposed, so that interop guarantees can be higher.
