@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world @silverpill@mitra.social @mr64bit@p.mr64.net This page is NOT cachable.

@sun@shitposter.world @silverpill@mitra.social @feld@friedcheese.us For content migration and independent handle from domain/software/instance, clearly yes. It's technically built-in by design. For self-ddos, I don't know how it's achieve in practice, but yes, posting link on bluesky with millions of people reading it it's just a no-op for my server. Posting a link to Fediverse for 3k followers just hammer my blog server…

@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world @silverpill@mitra.social It will. A big content creator have to stop posting link on Fediverse last week because of that. I will try to find it post about this.

@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world @silverpill@mitra.social @mr64bit@p.mr64.net It's NOT possible. Content is dynamic EVEN if not logged in.

@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world @silverpill@mitra.social @mr64bit@p.mr64.net I repeat : this page is NOT cachable without breaking real user authentication, anti-CSRF and anti-bot system. Not even 1ms.

@sun@shitposter.world @silverpill@mitra.social @feld@friedcheese.us AP have no potential because of very serious trouble from the start. Typically, tying domain to instance and confusing frontend with backend are very strange and hard to change choice, with very tedious trouble because of that.

@sun@shitposter.world @silverpill@mitra.social @feld@friedcheese.us People just literally stop posting content because hammering other instance with tons of request or self-ddos-ing their servers.

@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world @silverpill@mitra.social I have this one 4 month ago: https://news.itsfoss.com/mastodon-link-problem/
Will check for the more recent story I remember.

@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world @silverpill@mitra.social Here is a single post effect from the fediverse. Hitting a server with the power of a raspi.

@mr64bit@p.mr64.net @sun@shitposter.world @silverpill@mitra.social @feld@friedcheese.us That's just the result for a tiny 500 followers account. Imagine now a 1 million follower account.

@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world @silverpill@mitra.social @mr64bit@p.mr64.net Yes, it require a login. There is a CSRF and anti-bot dynamic content on it for real usage

@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world @silverpill@mitra.social @mr64bit@p.mr64.net Even with 30s, it will break CSRF

@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world @silverpill@mitra.social @mr64bit@p.mr64.net This computer is perfectly capable of handling real world workload. Fediverse workload is NOT normal.

@privateger@plasmatrap.com @silverpill@mitra.social And i'm the good example of the "censorship" trouble on the fediverse. You can look about those ban, mostly all if not all are highly problematic.

@privateger@plasmatrap.com @silverpill@mitra.social My instance is publicly blocked from 249 known instances, and certainly way more not publicly. It's around 10-15% of the network.

@privateger@plasmatrap.com @silverpill@mitra.social No. My instance is not blocked by 13 others.

@sun@shitposter.world @feld@friedcheese.us @silverpill@mitra.social ActivityPub is very hard to explain too in all cases. And some of very huge limitation of this protocol is very badly and poorly know for user. AT is perhaps hard for maintainer, but AP is hard for users…

@silverpill@mitra.social Yeah, sure… I host my PDS on test network on AT Protocol, but don't know about AT protocol
https://github.com/bluesky-social/pds

@silverpill@mitra.social And since january 2023 (if I remember correctly), production switch to the decentralized version, with load balancing of the main single PDS to multiple one. You can host your own PDS if you want.

@silverpill@mitra.social And currently BlueSky achieve something Fediverse is totally impossible to do. Migrating tons of account from one PDS to another without losing a single piece of data.
