Aight, level with me: Is every mastodon server running on a Raspberry Pi?

Not really: hhttps://leah.is/posts/scaling-the-mastodon/ They just got 6 times the normal requests: https://chaos.social/@ordnung/110312089838674624

unfortunately this is exactly why mastodon won't work

I already don't trust mastodon links because 9 times out of 10 they simply don't work. Everyone's tiny hobby server falls over when one post gets big, and obviously not everyone is going to scale their servers to support the load of a viral post that might happen once every 6 months and will be 100x their base load
