We reduced the cost of building Mastodon at Twitter-scale by 100x
> ...10k lines of code. This is 100x less code than the ~1M lines TwitterI wish I didn't see this comparison, which is not fair at all. Everyone in their right mind understands that the number of features is much less, that's why you have 10k lines.Add large-scale distributed live video support at the top of that, and you won't get any close to 10k lines. It's only one of many many examples. I really wish you compare Mastodon to Twitter 0.1 and don't do false advertising> 100M bots posting 3,500 times per second... to demonstrate its scaleI'm wondering why 100M bots post only 3500 times per second? Is it 3500 per second for each bot? Seems like it's not, since https termination will consume the most of resources in this case. So I'm afraid it's just not enough.When I worked in Statuspage, we had support of 50-100k requests per second, because this is how it works - you have spikes, and traffic which is not evenly distributed. TBH, if it's only 3500 per second total, then I have to admit it is not enough.
