I had no idea Jimmy moonlighted as a pentester! (The report is invalid, for those concerned, we've had rate limiting and account lockouts for years.)

**tl;dr** — you can now find remote categories and see your tracked/watched categories in `/world`. A new alpha version of NodeBB was tagged today: v4.3.0-alpha.3. The biggest change is to the `/world` route, which up until now showed a list of topics […] [Original post on community.nodebb.org]

Happy Tuesday! Today we've updated the NodeBB community forum onto the `remote-categories` testing branch, which means that users on the open social web that identify themselves as "Groups" will be rendered in NodeBB as **categories**. Prior to this […] [Original post on community.nodebb.org]

We received word recently that one of our long-standing clients, NFC Ring, is planning to shut down their forum toward the end of the month. While this is normally a sad time, it's worth mentioning that NFC Ring has been hosting their forum with NodeBB […] [Original post on community.nodebb.org]

@trwnh@mastodon.social pointed me to this comic and I feel like it perfectly encapsulates what the AP dev scene is like if you're not actually an implementor. @_elena@mastodon.social is this what we sound like? :laughing:

NodeBB's topic list layout is great for written and media-light content, although it is less ideal for categories which predominately feature pictures. I recently ran into this issue with the Pics and Trips category on the OpenBeta Community. While […] [Original post on community.nodebb.org]
