> 429 Too Many Requests

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

Maybe, but the admin commented it was intentional for that specific post, it was slowing down the entire site.

This is mind-blowing. Last I checked, the front page of HN sends tens of requests per second to each link. There are humans who can pack envelopes faster than the typical mastodon server can answer GETs. I'd love to see someone benchmark the top servers for a few seconds to see what it takes to break a reasonable latency SLA.

Clearly they're not microservicing hard enough.

I suggest making the current team explain to 4 new teams how to port it to something fast, like elixir and rust (both!)

Probably messaging with pulsar and the build system from python 4, too.

I read this in a whitepaper. Let’s do this, guys! ;)
