    @soapdog@toot.cafe hmm... just thinking aloud here. You posit in another post that the network effects inflate exponentially: > Push models are resource hogs that approach exponential growth in a large network like the fediverse That's not true. If you post a message then it sends a copy to each follower. That's linear growth. If you collapse recipients via shared inboxes you can reduce that further. If you're referring to the torrent of requests that happen if your post is shared (the "thundering herd" problem) then that's actually a PULL happening from those requesting instances! Secondly, in a pull model of AP, you would need to continually poll servers of all your followers so as to approach a real-time effect. You'd be polling servers over and over again, and many of them would have nothing new, with so much wasted traffic. If your expectations include semi real-time updates, the push model is much more performant, in my humble opinion.

    Hey @evan@cosocial.ca, I'm watching your lightning talk at FOSDEM! I'm simultaneously glad it's less than 10 minutes, but sad it's not longer too :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: (Everyone else, want to watch it? Here it is) Some questions I'm jotting down while I'm watching it I can see the user on ActivityPub.Space, which is how it's supposed to work. Would I be able to follow this user from a non-Person? If integrating into NodeBB, I'd maybe want the Application actor itself to follow it. Love how you head off concerns about consent issues with a slide about how it's not scraping, mass-following, etc. So it uses relays, such as the ones on relaylist.com? Let's talk about how we can get NodeBB sharing data to tags.pub by default (or by admin opt-out switch.

    @reiver @silverpill @wjmaggos we have spent 40 years educating internet users about how domain names work. They know how email federation works; they know how web federation works. They know what it means to own your own domain and to use someone else's domain.
