First of, I’m not entirely sure they are the same to be honest, sometimes I see discuss.site-a.com while others it’s discourse.site-b.com?
Anyway, are these federated in some ways?
You must log in or # to comment.
No the software in this case is a classic forum software and stands alone.
Not an official implementation, but there were extensive talks about it and someone was working on a plugin.
Is that only between an instance of discourse and the rest of fediverse? Does it also apply for different discourse instances talking to each other?
Essentially, I’m wondering whether I can use 1 account to comment across different forums.
Not familiar with the specifics, sorry.
gotcha, thanks for the link btw!
You can use any subdomain for any type of instance but if you see it on lemmy then its federated.
