If only it supported federation/activitypub.

Given that the "flagship instance" of this software is Raddle, that'll never happen. Also how would a Reddit style site work with Activitypub anyway? AP is typical social media structure with posts and comments, while this is a link aggregator which is structured entirely different with posts being regulated to sub-forums. Hell does AP even support "communities" at this point?

Hm.. I guess you're right. I thought activitypub had groups. It looks like there was some [talk](https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/groups-implementation/591) about it but I don't think it's part of the spec. It'll be interesting to see how [Lemmy](https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy) is implementing it. Maybe as pseudo users?

I don't think I would want to use a piece of software developed by the guys behind Raddle.
