Big spike in comments/posts this AM :/

Thanks for the in depth write up! I haven't looked too far into the docs or the subscription model, but is this a fault on Lemmy's end, or is this a function of how activity pub handles federated communication? (I'm very new to activity pub/federation, just now reading through the activity pub docs)

I do like your idea of distributed replication via keys,much better than what I had brainstormed

Edit: yeah it does look like it's a function of activity pub, wonder if theres a more scalable federation protocol out there

The activity pub documentation lays it all out in an understandable format

it could have been done much better.

Care to expand on this point?

I'm presently working on changing the url schema to more match reddit's,

Eg:

/post/{title}-{title_id}

/post/{title}-{title_id}/comments

Etc.

I have all the code changes locally but waiting for a new PSU fot my home server to come in tomorrow for my dev server as i dont feel like setting up postgres etc on my laptop

Wait really? Is there a recommended extension for this?

Namecheap has been my goto for a while now

What are the current specs of the server y'all are using ?
