   I've found a few perf issues in @pixelfed accounts with 1k+ followers

   Fanout and audience delivery are two tricky aspects that require more work, I'm working on this, and exploring ways to make pixelfed <-> pixelfed federation even more efficient!

     @dansup shared inboxes were in the activity pub spec drafts for almost a full year before mastodon implemented activity pub.

     @jenniferplusplus No they weren't, even Gargron admits that. It was him/Mastodon that contributed them to the spec, I'm sure you can ask @cwebber to verify.

     I just want to mention that Mastodon has set the gold standard for this.

     We take a lot for granted, like the MastoAPI, Webfinger, and sharedInbox.

     These are not defined in the ActivityPub spec, these were contributed by Mastodon/Gargron.

     The sharedInbox extension enables instances these large, which is a good thing, most people don't want to install Mastodon to have to use it.

     @dansup Shared inbox is actually defined by the activitypub spec.

     @jenniferplusplus Now it is, because of Mastodon.

     @bitflipped I never meant that Mastodon created webfinger, I meant that they added a common implementation that we (activitypub implementations) use for addressing. Did AP define webfinger addressing?

     @dansup while I do like Mastodon and what it has done for social media, Webfinger was created by the IETF
