  @timbray @aral I think it would be wise to contact the folks who designed ActivityPub on their thoughts on this.

  From @aral : https://ar.al/2022/11/09/is-the-fediverse-about-to-get-fryed-or-why-every-toot-is-also-a-potential-denial-of-service-attack/ on fairly scary scaling problems with Mastodon. Protocol design people, please read & consider. I have some ideas too, but later.

    Is the fediverse about to get Fryed? (Or, “Why every toot is also a potential denial of service attack”)
    
    Every time I post something that gets lots of engagement, I essentially end up carrying out a denial of service attack on myself. What does this say about the design of Mastodon and ActivityPub and the future of the fediverse?
