I guarantee you if I or anybody else inundated people’s instances with a thousand simultaneous curl calls to some hellthread using /api/v1/statuses/:id/context, it crashed their instances, and when called on it, responded with, “Hm? This is a you problem. Just systemctl stop pleroma.service to make it stop” and tagging whoever wrote/merged that endpoint, it would be taken very, very differently than this tantrum Pete is throwing. Even though it uses literally the same logic.
