@molly0xfff tbh, just tooting causes a minor DDoS as the fedi servers spin up their toot card renders — with an account your size it’s probably a lot of traffic almost instantly.

@kvnweb @molly0xfff is there a name for that yet? Tootdotting, perhaps?

Kevin Webb

@kboyd it needs one! Every time I share a link and I see the traffic graph I am like holy hell! And I only have 1/100th of the followers that @molly0xfff has...

"Temporarily Tooted Out" or TTO'd?

Kevin Webb

@kboyd @molly0xfff on the other hand, maybe we should just go back to using centralized infrastructure... :)

@kvnweb @molly0xfff I think there's a middle ground, one that would allow multiple mastodon servers to efficiently and safely share these lookups.

Kevin Webb

@kboyd @molly0xfff I'm kidding, but yeah there are ways mastodon could improve this.

Tbh, the real pain point is for the folks administering larger servers -- I suspect they'll eventually sort this out given the resource requirements.
