Pity there's no issue tracker on the repo. I am not on Discord or Slack but maybe it was discussed there, and maybe that can still be found.

  The main repo is over at Gitlab: https://gitlab.com/jam-systems/jam/ https://gitlab.com/jam-systems/jam/ which also has the issue tracker (we could do a better job keeping that up to date though tbh).

    Thanks! I also missed that and missed the issue tracker at github.

We're interested in federation and discussed it a couple of times but we don't fully support it yet. Happy to learn more about what you have in mind.

  Hi, nice to hear that. I first thought you'd need an account to join, but it's very cool to see that this works without accounts! With ActivityPub[1] federation it might be possible to show account informations of users if they decide to join with their federated account. It is for example possible to comment on a PeerTube instance on one server by using a Mastodon account from another server. I'd love to help but I have no experience at all with such protocols and how servers do the magic :) If you do manage to implement something I will be very impressed, too. Thanks for creating such a nice tool! [1] https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/ https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/
