You have to remember that until recently, there was sub 100 daily users, this wasn’t a big platform, and it wasn’t just lemmy.ml, but a bunch of <10 user instances.

It wasn’t worth paying for a small side project until it wasn’t and at that point it was too late, plus who would have predicted that the gov of Mali would forcefully take back all of their domains?

I think they meant like “overloaded”, like a hose spraying water, but the water being users from all around the fediverse

it may be worth putting a bug request on the activitypub github, because I agree that could become a huge problem, but its also alot of work to implement because most instances will need to update to the newest activitypub standard once they approve a new version of the standard.
