I found this article from earlier this year: https://blog.discourse.org/2025/04/discourse-and-the-fediverse/
However, I haven't come across that much content from Discourse platforms over here on Lemmy/Piefed. Is there more work to do with the plugins, or should we work with organizations running Discourse to help them connect with us?
For example, the threadiverse communities for OpenStreetMaps is relatively small, and being able to see / contribute to community.openstreetmap.org would be amazing.
As far as I can see, you can ask questions and follow categories if the admin sets this up. Here is an example: events@forum.fedimins.net
You can only post if you connect your Fediverse account to the forum.
Do you see any content on that page? I'm looking at !events@forum.fedimins.net but I don't see anything except the title and icon
I can't say anything about calling handles with !, but if I follow the handle on Mastodon, it works anyway.
Right, that makes sense
What I'm getting from the comments here is that it works for microblogging, not for forum / threadiverse
So I can find the forum and subscribe to it if I want.
I did try subscribing to one from my instance a while back, but no content has federated in since then

Of course, I can't say anything about other forums.
