Except that it is network software and it will be the network's problem.

You don't have to.

It has been serving the media for FSE for a long time, it's stepped in for objects when Pleroma had that accidental MRF DDoS bug, it's currently doing some horrible forked /inbox thing so I can compare its responses to Pleroma (so you may see it in your logs when it fetches actors that it hasn't refreshed in a while, for example), the ingestion process is being live-streamed (sorta, via https://fsebugoutzone.org/apotheosis and the Grafana dash at http://pbuhwjjhrzcvrghtfqlwqlgabuzc7jnkqv4swekxjvv7pgubd7jjoiqd.onion/public-dashboards/8643a3beee524385bd0ef6a304dbbd65?orgId=0&refresh=6s ). It would be more work to make a scam (and if it were a scam, I'd be pushing donations harder).
