there's been almost twenty years of work on optimizing javascript engines with JIT and complex heuristic-based GC and a wealth of feature-rich profiling and analysis tools and validation and testing frameworks for deployment and integration and syntax improvements and functional and higher-order primitives and serverside transpiled code. and it's all enabled some amazing new stuff, for example github now takes 10 seconds to display a plain text file, and you cant search properly anymore

@kissane IME there’s a mismatch between Fediverse as a collection of standards and tech and Fediverse as culture and norms- the insistence that Threads implementing ActivityPub “isn’t fediverse” is culture-over-tech, or bridging being antithetical etc. it’s gonna keep rearing its head as the people who desire the scale/ergo of twitter etc try to use/extend fediverse tech to do so and clash with the people who are very happy with the current scale/reach and see it as a feature.
