@Lyx @cassidyclown @kent @pernia @drewdevault @p @Owl @Owl @FrailLeaf im sure it wouldnt, if youre a good dev presumably the id of the actor is what youre going to focus on to store actors efficiently in db

@kent @FrailLeaf @cassidyclown @drewdevault @kirby @p @pernia @Owl @Owl thats crazy cool ive spoken to people about doing that and they said the code would be super difficult and unstable, bravo M80

@kirby @cassidyclown @kent @pernia @drewdevault @p @Owl @Owl @FrailLeaf ive heard it does a bumch of clogging up of resources from what i remember.

@p @cassidyclown @Lyx @pernia @drewdevault @kirby @Owl @Owl @FrailLeaf >To fix the issue with DMs, I think you can just use the same inbox as the old user
this might require changing pleroma's code itself, as when changing the nickname field in users table, old AP actor paths stop working, requiring nginx rewrite

@Lyx @kirby @FrailLeaf @Owl @Owl @cassidyclown @drewdevault @kent @pernia Yeah, I'm not actually sure what you mean, but in ActivityPub, the URL where you fetch the actor's metadata is their ID, so that has to be unique, that's how you identify people, etc. You usually have a more expedient local ID.
To fix the issue with DMs, I think you can just use the same inbox as the old user. I don't think you have to change anything besides the AP ID. Pleroma might bug a little about nickname, but you could hack it.

@kent @FrailLeaf @Lyx @Owl @Owl @cassidyclown @drewdevault @kirby @pernia Try just faking the response (nginx JSON file) for the old actor so it returns the new URL for the inbox, then refetch the old actor, then try sending a DM to the new one.
