Wow, bold decisions for what it’ll support and not. I like that it’s laser focused on a specific use case. What do you think about the impact to instances’ federation queue when a bunch of single user instances follow a community? 10x the traffic and queue for 10 single user instances than one instance with 10 users.

I ask this as someone that ran a full single user lemmy instance right up until recently and switch to a public piefed due to the traffic multiplication and other concerns.

I don’t know if it will scale tbh, but also I don’t expect many people to actually self host, and I’m sort of hoping the fediverse stays a bit … ghettoized. The current threadiverse is like 50000 people and works fine, I’m hoping there will just be more loose communities of 50000 that don’t really federate with the main one.

Let us both hope for those kind of scaling problems due to popularity 🤞
