Hi,

I have been trying to set up my own instance of postmill, with the midterm aim to use it as a frontend to these federated forums: http://z5bqfv5v75kxy7pj.onion/nodes.html

The look and feel of postmill is really nice imo, and I saw that something like federation was already thought about (webhooks and rust api), although the webhooks are taken out now. I would try to code a plugin for these purposes, connecting the webfrontend with a news server.

Two questions to the coders:

-is the use of postgresql mandatory, or could another db be used as well (i seem to have trouble with postgre, and maria is working well) -is there a plan to work on federation in any way, maybe we could bundle our efforts.

PostgreSQL is a hard requirement, no way around it.
