Hi OwnTech crew! Very happy that you all have set up a forum!
I want to ask if you all have considered enabling the ActivityPub plugin. I help run an open-source community on flow battery technology (using a different forum software that has ActivityPub by default) and it has helped us get more eyes on the project and contributions.
In our battery project, we are planning on using the Twist board to scale up - I think if you had ActivityPub, our forum users and yours would be able to communicate with each other directly on the topic, without needing to make separate accounts.
