@mozz Improvement idea for Astrobotany: could there be a Gemini feed index page for the Message Board? It could be a separate page from the normal one. That way we could follow the Astrobotany chat via feed subscriptions.
(Also related: I have this vague idea that Bubble itself could subscribe to feeds elsewhere to federate remote content as links into the system.)

I''ll think about that one a bit. My main concern is that astroboany is a semi-private community, in that you need to register in order to be able to see most of it. Making a public feed kinda feels like publishing IRC logs from a private channel. Which I know some people have mixed feelings about, and I don't want to discourage those kind of folks from contributing in astrobotany.

Understandable! The Gemini feed could still require a client certificate to access, making it viewable in clients like Lagrange but not submittable to Antenna, for example.

From a pragmatic point of view, I always seem to forget about the Message Board for long periods of time... Having it viewable in a client would keep it front and center, enhancing the participation, perhaps.

Oh I didn't even consider that a feed could still require a client certificate. I don't see any downsides to supporting that!
I got another weird idea, but I'm not sure how this would play out. I think it'd be more of a bubble feature rather than a astrobotany, but would require astrobotany to still support it. My idea was to have Bubble be able to link you to your astrobotany nick, and then when you're linked, you can access some kind of secondary subspace only for members that would be read only that would be created based on the astrobotany chat. But I guess that's a bit useless
