If #Mastodon is going to scale it is going to need something like #IPFS to reduce duplication of data across instances. Right now you get a potential 2 to the nth data usage if the social graph get's more interconnected. This is unsustainable and unnecessary. Also will consume more energy.

@anderscs Can't wait for the headlines to say that #Mastodon :mastodon: is using more energy than #Bitcoin :btc: And then Greta Thunberg, as a user of Mastodon, gets called out for her #ClimateFootprint (again) 😅

@matt Well, we're probably far off from that still. Mastodon doesn't have the same exponential growth of energy. There is no reward for using more energy like with #bitcoin. IPFS and Filecoin is nice because it will deduplicate data.
