I think this is the part I see as a potential hurdle for hosting a primarily auth-purposed instance. Fetching remotely would be too slow but data replication would exponentially increase storage over time. So anyone planning to self-host would need to take on the storage growth costs of all other federated instances raising the barrier for entry over time. Unless I've misunderstood this point
A long, long time ago I can still remember how upvotes used to make me smile And I knew if I just got rollin' That I could help keep users scrollin' And maybe there'd be content for a while But July 1st makes me shiver With far less content to deliver Bad news on the frontpage I can no longer engage I can't remember if I erupted When I read apps would be disrupted But disappointment interrupted The day that Reddit died So bye, bye, old Reddit API Stuck with Huffman through some updates but the updates were shite And them good ole boys were snortin' gonewild 'n smite Postin' this'll be the day that it dies This'll be the day Reddit dies Did you read the TOS? And do you have faith in mods success If users still engage with subs? Now do you believe in open access? Can ads save your failing assets? And could you be less avarice heedless schlubs? Well, I know that you're in need of clicks 'Cause I see you suckin' Newhouse dicks You both killed third party apps Man, I thought that you might give a crap I was a lonely teenage software dev With a git repository and a shit to give But I knew those apps wouldn't live The day that Reddit died I started singing bye, bye, old Reddit API Stuck with Huffman through some updates but the updates were shite And them good ole boys were snortin' gonewild 'n smite Postin' this'll be the day that it dies This'll be the day Reddit dies Now for ten years we'd moved on from Digg And greed grows fast for a ventured pig But that's not how it used to be When the users came for the cats and memes From apps made by the community And content that came from you and me Oh, and while those cats were growing old The number crunchers grew too bold The communities dismissed Now everyone is pissed And while Lemmy federates with Marx The concept knocks it from the park It's time to migrate to an ark The day that Reddit died So bye, bye, old Reddit API Stuck with Huffman through some updates but the updates were shite And them good ole boys were snortin' gonewild 'n smite Postin' this'll be the day that it dies This'll be the day Reddit dies
