Meanwhile, I can see this very Mastadon post with no login just fine.

And the interface is not trying to assault me. It loads quick.

...Seems like a better product than Twitter for a public feed.

I'm sure the loads are not comparable.

Honestly.

what the fuck is this response?

I hear always that centralising everything is great because efficiencies of scale: but then we have something that works as good or better and the response is; “ah yeah, but the load is so high!”

Why do I care? I don't honestly give a shit about how much load you have, you could be factoring Pi on every page load; it means -nothing- to me. I kindly invite you to give more of a shit about user experience.

This also goes for when “complicated” systems fail, maybe making them so complicated and centralised is not the way.
