Hello!
I’m excited to share that I’ve built a service that bridges Discord forum channels with the Fediverse, particularly with Lemmy communities!
In short: with the bot, you can either subscribe a Discord forum channel to an existing Fediverse community, or create a new federated community and assign a forum channel to it. Posts and comments are then synchronized between Discord and the Fediverse via ActivityPub.
Please note that the project is at a very early stage.
You can try it on your own on a dedicated Discord server I created:
https://discord.gg/8WXE9bZhbP
If you find it useful or interesting, or if you have any concerns about it, I am open to your feedback. Financial support for further development would also be very appreciated.
I have also created a dedicated community for this project, so you can write something there and the messages will be synchronized between Discord and the Fediverse:
[!discord_fediverse_bridge@bridge.nachitima.com](/c/discord_fediverse_bridge@bridge.nachitima.com)
To learn how the service works in more detail, you can read the README on the repository page:

And by the way, this post was created in Discord 🙂
The same works with other genuine federated platforms,doesn’t it? The amount of content in the fediverse would inevitably gradually increase over time as people become more aware of it
