#lemmy/#kbin has a problem that #mastodon hasn’t even attempted to solve; groups and what happens when they get popular.
#Communities, #groups, #magazines, whatever they are called are implemented as #Actors in #ActivityPub. They are basically just *very* popular users who boost a *lot*.
You can’t just distribute them across instances the way normal actors do. Whichever server hosts @[email protected] or @[email protected] is going to get HOSED on the regular.
it may be worth putting a bug request on the activitypub github, because I agree that could become a huge problem, but its also alot of work to implement because most instances will need to update to the newest activitypub standard once they approve a new version of the standard.
Definitely a problem that needs solved sooner rather than later, but I assume with a lot more eyes on ActivityPub now, people much smarter than I will have a solution.
