I think I can agree on this one. been looking for writers on fediverse. real ones that makes novels and such. it seems that if mastodon has community groups that users from other instances can join. that can fix isolated communities and users especially if they are on single user instances.
for an example if you had a community for artists. specific genres ones maybe like horror manga. users from other instances can join and you can post a toot under that community.
single user instances or people that are interested in things but on another instance may want to join that specific community.
The practice looks different. At least I was not able to figure out in a reasonably short amount of time how to post as a mastodon user in the forum channel. Apart from replying.
Usually it should work by DMing the forum channel. It then takes your message and reposts it. At least with Hubzilla that should work.
Hm. I was not able to do so. Did you try? Maybe I just do not know how to configure the channel source. 🤷
What forum did you try and from where?
