@smallcircles@social.coop indeed, we cut off at the end of a sentence and link out to the full page for Articles (although in this case it's not very long) The cutoff is somewhere around 500 chars.

@oblomov@sociale.network and nothing of value was lost Just kidding of course, there are many cool accounts on dot social

@k0e3@lemmy.ca forums are more constrained in scope in terms of discussion. This can mean a more tight-knit community of regulars, and the inherent development of a forum-wide culture at smaller scales. Reddit (and so, Lemmy, Piefed, etc.) are built to be more general purpose. Mastodon is the same. For example, my main is this account on activitypub.space. It is primarily a discussion forum around AP development, not much of anything else, but from that niche forum I can still participate here on the wider threadiverse.

The Discourse ActivityPub plugin is developed by a sole developer but I believe it is ready for use. I also believe he is still working on the plugin so that's positive news. Federation with Discourse forums is tricky, it's been difficult getting NodeBB to work reliably with Discourse. Are you able to load Discourse categories in Lemmy?
