@p @alex >Like a normal person.

Yeah okay bucko.

@alex I practically never see stuff I wasn't explicitly tagged in. Like a couple of times a week I get to use fedi like a normal person.

I can only imagine how long it takes @p to catch up on notifications. The dude hardly sees the timelines I'm guessing.

@dsfgs @djsumdog @realcaseyrollins @shebang I'm building a fork of Mastodon 2.8.4's frontend and AFAIK it doesn't have webassembley... Maybe for some worker process? It has websocket streaming though.

@djsumdog
Is it true that Pleroma can access exclusively Tor users?

Also does Pleroma use #WebAssembly or only #Javascript?

Thanks in advance.

@alex @realcaseyrollins @shebang Interesting. It makes sense. I think back to how Twitter moved from Rails to Scala (and that was they days before Sidekiq workers or microservices).

There's a reason the Erlang VM is used for message passing in big telecos. The JVM can be pretty performant, but it does incur an expensive upfront memory cost.

@djsumdog @realcaseyrollins @shebang I didn't get to show you a full comparison when we last chatted, but for two similarly sized servers, the Puma processes _alone_ on Mastodon consume more RAM than an entire Pleroma server. The sidekiq processes double it.

@realcaseyrollins @shebang @alex The Mastodon frontend UI (in advanced view) is pretty nice (reminds me of TweetDeck), but it still has this terrible issue of, if you leave a scroll bar not at the top, your browser will consume 20GB of ram by tomorrow. (I should stop bitching and just write a patch to add a max to columns).

The back end does feel weighty, but the Redis/ES options do provide some speed up. It's all tradeoffs. Pleroma does have a lot of positive performance considerations.

@alex @l0wk3y @realcaseyrollins @shebang I've heard Mastodon referenced probably a dozen times by people who don't use it. They have a certain degree of name recognition that's more than what people here give them credit for.

@alex @realcaseyrollins @shebang I think that's true.

It's a gateway drug to pleroma degeneracy.

@l0wk3y @realcaseyrollins @shebang But it's not just ActivityPub, it's also marketing and sales. Mastodon has that part own. So many people know what Mastodon is (hundreds of thousands) and have no clue what the Fediverse is. They think Mastodon _is_ the Fediverse.

@alex @realcaseyrollins @shebang It's just activity pub. I mean anyone who want's to can create a new site or contribute.

@realcaseyrollins @shebang I think people will continue to use it, but they will be using something that's stagnant and obsolete.

The best thing is has going for it at this point is name recognition and brand presence. This will keep it relevant for a long time, until one of us can take that position. I'm gonna try to.

@realcaseyrollins @shebang @alex Mastodon FE is fine. Mastodon itself is bloated and overly complicated.
