OpenVibe.Community

OpenVibe.Community is the community hub of the OpenVibe network, at openvibe.community. Its README describes it as the home of pastes, the forum, the typed comment threads every other OpenVibe product embeds, Pulse and submissions.

What it does

Since 2026-09-22 Community is "the only paste authority", holding code, text and screenshots with versions, likes, comments and forks. It also runs the forum (spaces, threads, posts, votes and categories), the typed comment threads other products embed, Pulse (the network's public activity), submissions for community review, and a Discord relay. Every page is server-rendered so "crawlers and no-JS readers get the whole thing". It owns one PostgreSQL database, ov_community, with Valkey for per-actor limit counters.

What it does not do yet

Its README counted production on 2026-10-21: 4,508 comment threads under other products' pages (Deals offers, Live recordings and clips, Host plans, Blog posts, pastes and wiki pages) with about 80 comments between them, most of them on pastes, and 39 forum threads, all opened by the system (34 public-roadmap items and 5 discussions), none by a person yet. "The Discord relay is off." Community does not own identity and SSO, file bytes, memberships or chat rooms.

How it fits the network

It depends on OpenVibe.Network for SSO and JWKS, OpenVibe.Media for screenshot and attachment uploads, OpenVibe.VIP for members-only gates, OpenVibe.Chat for a space's chat room, and OpenVibe.Events for the outbox relay and subscriptions.

Runtime and status

It is a small Node/Express app (CommonJS, no framework) over PostgreSQL, listening on 127.0.0.1:4200 behind nginx. STATUS.json records the stage as "alpha" and the service deployed with sudo ovhost deploy community.
