My dude… If you want to contribute, by all means, show us where there is a problem, other than in your imagination, and it will be seriously considered.

I had no idea we were doing condescending pet names, this is a fun game. My sweet summer child…

  • Federation ain’t doing great.
  • Federated replication load scales with the number of instances multiplied by the number of communities they subscribe to.
  • Server counts are growing at ~10x per month.
  • The defaults of this script encourage single-user instances admins to bump their sub count ~70x from something like 100 communities to something more like 7000 communities.
  • Users of this script actually literally don’t understand how federation works. They think they’re proxying through to the upstream instance while they browse rather than getting firehosed with the entire lemmyverse by they’re asleep.

It doesn’t take a rocket surgeon to figure out that global federation worker queues are not in great shape, or that a default that encourages single-user instance owners who have no idea what they’re doing to bump their sub count 70x isn’t helping the situation. If you think this is in my head I can’t help you. But I can help others understand that running this script with default settings is an awful and unnecessary idea.
