Eskating cyclist, gamer and enjoyer of anime. Probably an artist. Also I code sometimes, pretty much just to mod titanfall 2 tho.

Introverted, yet I enjoy discussion to a fault.

  • Well, it’s not like we couldn’t fall back to animated webps for that until it’s no longer a problem.

    Depends on how configurable image-rs is I guess.

    I could test avif for my posts tho, as I host my images with catbox anyway.

    I’m certainly curious to see if I can achieve smaller files with the same quality, as it’s always nice when browsing is fast.









  • The latency limit is caused by the activity queue that was introduced in v19.

    Servers can only talk as fast as round time allows, because Lemmy instances now keep track that each event actually does get federated, and in the right order.

    That last point means each event only gets sent once acknowledgement of the last one is received, creating a hard limit for how many events can be communicated, depending on ping. A mere two per second with a latency of 500ms.

    This serial process will obviously need to be parallelized. But that’s difficult.
