Will this hinder Lemmy from ever coming into the mainstream? If I type any topic in Google, I will get a reddit thread that deals with that. Can something like that ever happen for Lemmy?
Would it be possible to also integrate kbin?
I originally wanted to include the entire fediverse but ActivityPub might have some limitations.
Mainly it appears to be incredibly chatty. So in order for it to work my server, which right now just a RaspberryPi, would need to handle server requests for every single action, or Activity, that any user takes. But long story short every action someone takes on the fediverse creates approximately 1 network request for every instance in the fediverse. With approximately 10,000 instances… you now see the problem.
Now a ray of light in all of that is that I assume Kbin has a public API as well?, and I should be able to create an interface for that. But it’s not on my radar for the first release.
