I have my own (managed by masto.host) #Mastodon instance since 4 years.

On a typical day it handles 20.000 tasks (pushing new toots, synchronising, cleaning up etc).

Yesterday it went to 500.000 tasks.

And that's just one simple single-user instance. It's almost magical how the federated, distributed network of all ActivitiyPub instances managed to survive that brutal Tsunami of yesterday.

In short: We are ready for a new and better future, free from centralised gatekeepers.
Sidekiq history of my Mastodon instance, the last 6 months. 20000 jobs per day is the baseline. Starting end of October, growth. That reached 500000 jobs queued on 2022-11-18
