Should we be apprehensive about using his projects?

The majority of [ gestures vaguely ] is created and maintained by individuals with varying levels of crazy. You think the six COBOL developers holding up every bank on the planet are totally sane and hinged?

You're gonna have to host your own instance if you want candid filtered photographs of legally actionable violent threats. Weird medium for inciting violence, but godspeed.

Goddamn, tl;dr

EEE would require existing Mastodon users moving to threads

It would not.

Meta could implement ActivityPub in Facebook, and there's your majority population. Imagine a Facebook user "friending" your mastodon account. You follow them back because it's your mom, and so does basically everyone. Next, Facebook implements Pages to round off the concept of "communities." Then, Facebook introduces a genuinely useful extension - marketplace. Once a decent clip of people set up shop, trim off any instances that don't adopt the FriendlyPub fork.

Bam, EEE.

Nice try, Special Agent.

This (along with basically all instances with communick news behind them) is a classic example of scaling up prematurely.

When this community is brimming with so much content that users start to "miss" posts about [thing x] because there are so many posts about [thing y], then you make offshoot communities, not before.

lol yeah, that'll do it.

Using the template syntax you can start by copy/pasting the site to be migrated, and then inject sections that render using markdown syntax.

What templating languages do you know already, and are you running 11ty v3? There are some gotchas around images because (I think) the eleventy-image plugin is enabled by default.

I've found success running with .webc which is effectively HTML until you need it to be more.

Shout out to my fellow "None Backup Strategies" chaos goblins.
