I can share a build + instructions tomorrow on our join feature. Otherwise you will have to have a array of user_ids associated with each post.

Will we be able to use joins for delete queries as well? I'm probably reaching a bit, but it would be nice to be able to delete a document in one collection and delete documents in other collections that reference that document...

Not yet, but we should probably add a support for cascading delete.

Thanks Kishore. Cascading deletes would be great.
