virtualice is a user on octodon.social. You can follow them or interact with them if you have an account anywhere in the fediverse.
If you don't, you can sign up here.
hey you know what would be a very interesting way to scale large instances
literally make a second mastodon.social
and redirect all new users there, the two hosted independently and maybe even managed differently or organized in regions
and potentially some addition that help the two share the local timeline efficiently
i mean that's how the network is *designed* to scale
i mean not now but, "in the next years" or so
when vertically scaling postgresql will become an important issue
@CobaltVelvet that sounds like a good future path.
