Piefed being written in python means nothing.Instagram and threads (and parts of the clusterfuck that is facebook) are written in python and seem to have scaled fine.
Performance is negligable -- the main bottleneck is I/O.If a new python release breaks compatibility, Piefed can keep using the old version of python.
If bsky goes out of business and shuts down their servers, will these continue to function?
Yes, but there will be far less people since everyone's on bsky.social. Kinda like mastodon.social.
Does bsky still have any control at all over moderation?
Great question! Bluesky has individual moderation services you can subscribe to, and these hide/label posts for you.bsky has no control over moderation if you are not on their servers, and you are not subscribed to their moderation service.
A PDS stores your posts/comments/likes/blocks/articles/whatever. These all get crawled and saved to a relay.An appview connects to a relay and sorts through all the posts, and indexes them.They handle all the interactions, rather than passing messages between servers.
Sure, but I don't see why that would push people to use piefed specifically, since lemm.ee's shutdown didn't have anything to do with the lemmy software.
Running curl https://blenderdumbass.org/activitypub/account/blenderdumbass -H "Accept: application/activity+json" twice in a row outputs some bunkerweb anti-spam stuff.
Did something change since this was posted?I can look it up properly on mastodon.You have to be signed in to fetch accounts on mastodon, is that the problem?
