It’s amazing that we had the video and image technology to fake the moon landing back in the 60’s, but we still don’t have the technical ability to fake a cigarette butt poll on the internet over half a century later.

“hope”? Yes. “believe”? No. But I think it will pave the way for the next step.

It’s already starting.

I just hope even better happens to the rest of the power mods

Seeing Lemmy groan under influx of new users, but still a much smaller number than established centralized apps made me start wondering how it would scale to a couple of orders magnitude larger numbers. I’ve only started diving into code and architecture, but I’m worried that as the number of instances grow they’ve got an N! connection problem going. This is not a simple problem to fix for a federated system, but it’s got to be addressed eventually.

I understand the difference, and that it makes it harder to scale.

I’m a Software Architect who has worked on some very large data sets and distributed systems. I’ve never used the title “Data Architect” but I meet the definition. So, yes.

Killing blockchain & DeFi is the intended effect.

I’m guessing you’re seeing this on non-local communities? I think it means you’re local server hasn’t started copying and caching that content yet. I haven’t taken a look at that part of the code yet, so just a guess.

You are right. On the one hand, it’s kind of bad, naive distributed architecture (my day job), it could have been done much better. On the other hand, the more important point is that it demonstrates an alternative to centralized. We’ll learn a lot about usage patterns here, get new ideas, and either improve Lemmy or build something better from the ground up. Big thanks to Reddit for driving users this way to test scalability and get much better knowledge of usage.
