#lemmy/#kbin has a problem that #mastodon hasn't even attempted to solve; groups and what happens when they get popular.
#Communities, #groups, #magazines, whatever they are called are implemented as #Actors in #ActivityPub. They are basically just *very* popular users who boost a *lot*.
You can't just distribute them across instances the way normal actors do. Whichever server hosts @technology@lemmy.ml or @technology@beehaw.org is going to get HOSED on the regular.
@schizanon @technology@lemmy.ml @technology@beehaw.org Yep. I expect that long-term a lot of instances will limit the ability to create groups (as Beehaw does) or place restrictions on the size a group is allowed to grow before asking that group to move to another/their own instance or ask for finances to help with the costs.
