@tek I saw your post just after I sent my toot :ablobcatwink:Quite a full machinery you need to run Mastodon. I always wondered, with all the instances we're federated with, what the size in GB (TB ?) of the Postgres database?

@tek That's interesting, I thought we were already in the 100Gb with all the instances we're connected to.How many instances actually are we connected to ?Would be awesome to see a graph with all the connections :blobcatcamera:

@Balor It doesn’t grow as quickly as you’d think. Fortunately! 😃 It seems to be closer to O(users). I honestly don’t know how many we federate with. I could get some raw numbers from SQL, but how many are still alive? I’m not sure. It’s probably reasonable to guess that we federate with 90% of existing multi-user servers, though: with about 4,000 users *someone* is bound to have talked to almost everyone.There used to be great websites for that. I don’t know now.

@tek It is sad to see so many of the tools that were built around Mastodon disappeared.Also the amount of project using ActivitySub is crazy now :fishthink:Last one that I remembered were gnu social, Mastodon, pleroma.Now I see there is also Misskey (not even sure if gnu social is still a thing)

@Balor Yeah, there were some pretty nifty tools a while ago. But ActivityPub is on fire, with so many cool new not-Twitter-alike servers built on it. I love seeing it!

@Balor @tek I'm constantly annoyed when they say #Mastodon. There are many other projects using #ActivityPub as well. Did everyone forget #Diaspora which was in #news & #media a few years ago.

@Balor @sl They started using it in 2018, I think.
