From the post:
The BSD Cafe Journal has introduced Billboard, a platform combining traditional forum features with Fediverse integration. Designed as a hybrid space, it functions as a classic discussion forum with persistent threads while also supporting ActivityPub federation, enabling cross-platform interactions without algorithmic curation. The project is built on NodeBB and aims to serve as a social hub for BSD and open-source communities, allowing users to engage in long-form discussions while participating in the broader decentralized social web. The platform is accessible at billboard.bsd.cafe, with early feedback highlighting requests for dedicated testing areas and integration with existing community spaces.
And from the original announcement, linked in the DiscoverBSD post:
Announcing the BSD Cafe Billboard
Today, we’re introducing three things.
The first one is a forum. A real forum – with categories, threads, and actual conversations that don’t disappear in a timeline after six minutes.
The second is a Fediverse platform. Fully federated, ActivityPub-native. Your posts go out, the world’s posts come in. No walled gardens, no algorithms, no tricks.
The third is a Bar. A place to sit down, talk to strangers who happen to care about the same weird things you do, and stay as long as you want.
A forum. A Fediverse platform. A bar.
Are you getting it?
These are not three separate things. This is one thing.And we’re calling it Billboard.
Found it thanks to a post in the Italian fediverse community.
Glad to see NodeBB receiving more love, and for making a dedicated forum on top of that. =D
