@ajsadauskas @bmaxv as someone who frequented these niche forums extensively, i don’t see any reason to connect or federate them. This is done loosely by someone sharing from one to another, which could be to Mastodon. The spécialisation of sites like saxontheweb or electric heaters is the main attraction. Federating them would result in an unwanted dilution IMO.
@mkoubik @ajsadauskas @bmaxv That’s a great point if it were possible. An expert reply to a forum, if done properly, would be appreciated. IOW, value added from someone whith knowledge or experience
