@h we can def build a golang backend, that would be easier to deploy and more performant.

I understand if you want to do it yourself tho, so lmk

@dansup i had just been thinking about it for the fun of it really. id be up for doing it in an official capacity too but when your current goal is to make this stable atm rewriting this soon would probably be wasting time

@h well, what we can do is start small and write microservices in go and a/b test them in production against our php codebase, and go from their hehe

@h ffmpeg is a microservice in a lot of code bases, otherwise we'd all be done for if javascript had to transcode media. What's your point lol

@h but really, loops is basically a crud service, aside from the algo, there isn't much point to target golang, where as a service like Gotosocial makes sense for a Mastodon type replacement, but a lot of the complexities that Go solves compared to ruby aren't present in our context.

@dansup my only reason for wanting to use go is that i just wanted to do it as a for-fun project and go is my favourite language for backends, wasnt a serious suggestion. if you were doing this in node it would be an improvement but youre doing it in php so eh itd be comfier for me specifically to write in but thats about it Lol
