Its a bit charitable to call threads a monopoly since no one uses it.
Failing optimist, can code poorly.

Tumblr also downsized to 25 employees (including T&S). I don’t expect anything groudbreaking from them soon.
I’m surprised they’re still interested in ActivityPub.
Hot Take: This is good because its easier for people to leave threads, since they can still contact their friends on threads. I do think having most instances block them is also good, so people can have a choice (I personally don’t want threads).
I didn’t know that about the Iranian strike.
does mastodon’s search even work? Unless a post has a hashtag its near-unindexable.
I don’t think either strikes were good, but I do think that there’s a double standard, Israels strikes were fine, but Iran’s aren’t?
The search doesn’t even work on my instance.
Lemmy is the only fediverse software with a good search imo.
I’ve heard of snac, but never knew about the database thing. What does it use? static files?
Misskey (I use sharkey, a fork of it) is really good. Groups don’t federate yet iirc.
Its frontend is extremely slow though.
The post has been since deleted, but someone was trying to last three days without pooping.
I just took another look at it,
Comparing it to another random note
, the to
and cc
fields are supposed to be arrays, rather than just a string.
Its also missing a url
field, which is supposed to link to the user-facing url of the post.
There is some features that are needed, like the dismal state of mod tools, and moving communities to other servers.
They’re not breaking things, they just have development that doesn’t move at the speed of molasses.
I doubt it would get shutdown, all the communities there would have to shut down.
So, are all the posts and stuff on your instance gone?
Were you able to migrate the DB?
join.piefed.social has a list somewhere.
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.
But python isn’t the webs scripting engine. If it was, browsers would have support for python3 and 2.
I honestly doubt that, It has no relevance – at all. I see screenshots of bluesky posts everywhere, but rarely see threads posts.
