@stefano Awesome! But now I'm waiting for the "oh, and one more thing..." to drop
@82mhz there's one more thing. That will not be a great news, as I'm retiring another service. But I'll wait to be sure this is working properly

Today, we're introducing three things.
The first one is a forum. A real forum - with categories, threads, and actual conversations that don't disappear in a timeline after six minutes.
The second is a Fediverse platform. Fully federated, ActivityPub-native. Your posts go out, the world's posts come in. No walled gardens, no algorithms, no tricks.
The third is a Bar. A place to sit down, talk to strangers who happen to care about the same weird things you do, and stay as long as you want.
A forum. A Fediverse platform. A bar.
Are you getting it?
These are not three separate things. This is one thing.And we're calling it Billboard.
And no, we checked the calendar. We know. This is not an April Fools' joke.
We're just really bad at timing.
@stefano oh nice, what software is this?

@stefano oh nice, I had read they were working on AP integration, I thought it was still experimental, has it been released yet? Or is it a preview?

@oblomov It's been released, and it seems to be working fine.

A forum! Great idea.

Thanks for this new place to sit and discuss!
But the opening date was a bit unfortunate, first thought it's April Fools' joke.

I wish we could all regularly refer to forums as a kind of social networking and the fedi as social media. both needed but the differences matter.

Good for phones. Horrible for real devices.
But wait: I could participate there with my usual Mastodon account?
