@Gargron How do you cover the increase in costs caused by this? Any plans to on-demand deliver static files (media) from a cheap server acting as reverse-proxy, and only switch to pulling that content through expensive fastly during time of overload?
I do something similar for a big image hosting website and it saves them a lot of money at acceptable tradeoff.

Might be worth it to extend the resilience of Mastodon endpoints for the whole community and establish best practices.. 🥺
