Mastodon's monthly active user numbers have risen by 84,579 since the Twitter buyout story broke on Monday (and I do mean across the Mastodon network, not this server)
@Gargron why do I keep getting this on "Local" and "Federated" view on my Tusky app?
@nonordinarytiles These timelines require some of the heaviest database queries to display, so I have disabled them here to make everything else work faster.

@Gargron @nonordinarytiles These timelines are not custom-tailored to each user, right? Everyone gets to see the same 'local' timeline?

Then maybe it would be a nice feature if #mastodon could periodically (say once per minute?) pre-generate this timeline, and then everyone gets this cached timeline for the next minute.

Might be a nice "first aid measure" for overloaded instances?

@tinloaf @nonordinarytiles That's the problem, it's not pre-generated but it does have to be tailored for everyone according to mutes, blocks, domain blocks, and language filters.
@Gargron @tinloaf @nonordinarytiles But then why do they work in the web client?
