Sure ... but that's not what I was talking about. It's still talking ActivityPub and that seems, to me, from my low use, few user instance, to be an extremely chatty protocol. I don't know if the ActivityPub traffic scales linearly with users but it would be a not inconsiderable number for 30k users.

Exactly. We're agreeing! That's why I'm not surprised that the mastodon server didn't do so well and that you might get more mileage out of your compute
