The FOSS world of forum software continues to get better and better. Lately I've been going through a 30 days experiment of installing, setting up, and working within both NodeBB and Discourse.
Julian over at the NodeBB side of things has been plugging away in taking care of the software, with the latest version having some QoL features.
Security Fixes
Just a note that v4.6.3 contained a dependency upgrade to the validator package that fixes CVE-2025-56200. v4.7.0 contains this fix as well.
New setting to control whether uploaded media is displayed as a topic thumbnail
Early changes to better handle ActivityPub content meant that uploaded post content was shown in the topic thumbnails set. This is now a configurable option in Settings > Uploads.
