tags.pub clarification questions

Hey @evan@cosocial.ca, I'm watching your lightning talk at FOSDEM! I'm simultaneously glad it's less than 10 minutes, but sad it's not longer too :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

(Everyone else, want to watch it? Here it is)

Some questions I'm jotting down while I'm watching it [...]

  1. I can see the user on ActivityPub.Space, which is how it's supposed to work. Would I be able to follow this user from a non-Person? If integrating into NodeBB, I'd maybe want the Application actor itself to follow it.

  2. Love how you head off concerns about consent issues with a slide about how it's not scraping, mass-following, etc. So it uses relays, such as the ones on relaylist.com?

  3. Let's talk about how we can get NodeBB sharing data to tags.pub by default (or by admin opt-out switch.
