The Fediverse has a problem with accidentally DDoS-ing remote service. What can we do about it?aumetra.xyz
Hello fedi. i am trying to solve the "fetch all replies" problem once and for all that makes the fedi feel a lot more desolate and with a lot more reply guys in it than it should be. this is take two, where before i had it triggered by a button, but now i think it should happen on the server-side whenever you expand a post. can anyone help me out figure out how to make this more efficient by only fetching posts that the server doesn't already have? i am not sure what the best strategy would be, and if anyone with experience doing efficient rails and SQL stuff could give me some pointers that would be gr8. the patch is actually extremely simple it just needs a few nice things to make it not DDoS everyone.

I need some #FediDev help:
So If we want to really kill birdsite, we need to do things that are impossible on corporate platforms
I have been working on one idea, #DIYAlgorithms, by adding an API endpoint to let masto lists be manually controlled lists of statuses (instead of lists of accounts), so an external algo can autopopulate them.
I have no idea what i'm doing tho, and we need to move quick before another centralized platform really takes off.
help plz?
