I've commented a few times about some issues I see with the scalability of ActivityPub - the protocol behind the Fediverse and its best-known implementation Mastodon. A couple of folks have asked for more elaboration, so ... here it is.

First, let me add some disclaimers and warnings. I haven't devoted a lot of time to looking at ActivityPub, so there might be some things I've misunderstood about it. On the other hand, I've brought bigger systems - similar node counts and orders of magnitude more activity per node - from broken to working well based on less study of the protocols involved. So if you want to correct particular misconceptions, that's great. Thank you in advance. If you want to turn this into an appeal to authority and say that I'm wrong only because I haven't developed a full ActivityPub implementation or worked on it for X years ... GTFO.

What

What is ActivityPub? It's an HTTP- and JSON-based protocol for exchanging information about "activities". An activity could be many things.

Learning Rust

The following is a list of resources for learning Rust as well as tips and tricks for learning the language faster.

Warning

Rust is not C or C++ so the way your accustomed to do things in those languages might not work in Rust. The best way to learn Rust is to embrace its best practices and see where that takes you.

The generally recommended path is to start by reading the books, and doing small coding exercises until the rules around borrow checking become intuitive. Once this happens, then you can expand to more real world projects. If you find yourself struggling hard with the borrow checker, seek help. It very well could be that you're trying to solve your problem in a way that goes against how Rust wants you to work.
