    This is to keep track of issues that we are experiencing ‘Uncategorized’ category showing up on the home page. I am looking to have that removed, but it looks like some editing to the database is needed, and I do not know what I am doing with mongoDB in order to solve that. I am awaiting an update from the nodeBB developers. First post with images are small, sometimes with the message “This post did not contain any content” - Thread This is a Fediverse/ActivityPub issue, whether it’s how certain software (ie: Mastodon, Lemmy, Piefed) handles images/media or how nodeBB implements them. Additionally, videos, are not showing up at all on Caint. We may be waiting a while for an update (if there is one) - Foreign language posts - Thread This is another Fediverse/ActivityPub issue - Last week or so, I added some ActivityPub relays so we can be discovered by many servers. This has the downside of pulling in posts from instances and accounts which have foreign languages. I am keeping an eye on Recent from time-to-time to hopefully catch and remove them.

    Welcome to the Caint Lock‑in. Here, moderation is intentionally light, though it will still be applied. We’ll be importing hashtags and ActivityPub feeds from external forums to expand the content available on Caint. Because the imported content covers a wide range of topics including politics, current events, and other potentially sensitive subjects, some posts may be offensive to certain readers. I will do a brief check of threads to see if it’s appropriate to stay (Where I toe the line is not going to be agreeable by everyone.If additional ‘staff’ is added in the future, where they toe the line is at their discretion) Even though the content may be imported, you can still reply, upvote, report as normal. As a Caint member, you represent the community when you post, so please be courteous to all.

    @padraig @caint Had already headed over to check but that's pretty cool. Slightly confusing but cool (As I'm two users over there now technically)
