* zxmpi twiddles thumbs and waits for mastodon confirmation email09:58
diddledanizxmpi: did it arrive yet?12:41
diddledaniapparently tooting is no-longer a thing in Mastodon...12:41
diddledaninow it's "publish"ing12:41
zxmpiand me setting up beanzmeanzfartz just to toot!! :-P12:48
zxmpiwas a silly name but changing it rather than just letting toot die seems the wrong way12:49
davefthe only issue I have with mastodon, most instances are running on slow VPSs15:12
davefso the sidekiq queues just bind up and you never see other people's toots on other instamces15:13
davef*instances15:13
daveflong live IRC! :)15:14
zxmpiirc will never die but as a twitter replacement i think i can use mastodon15:54
zxmpii think with mastodons federation it might go same way, it might fade but someone will always be running a server15:58
diddledaniso we need someone to set up a mastodon instance to rule them all... we can call it the "centralised decentralised platform"16:04
diddledanimastodon is very much designed to scale, but the server operators aren't using all the capabilities to do so - as you say, most of them are single VPS setups16:05
diddledaniI saw someone ask "has anyone set up elasticsearch backend for mastodon" - I suspect nobody is actually doing that in production16:06
diddledaniafaict mastodon has elasticsearch linkage built in but nobody is using it16:06
davefit does have support for ELK, but you're right.. nobody is using it16:08
