This is my best tip:
If you have not yet done so, add a location field to your profile. It only takes a few seconds to do, but it makes it way easier for others to understand your context.
Quite often when I write something about Denmark, people will reply, "Yeah, we have that too!" — with no information about WHERE they are.

Today I coded something I've been dreaming about for many months - a solution to the #ActivityPub scaling problem.
The problem is that if 20 people cast 5 votes and those votes are federated to 500 servers, the instance hosting the community needs to do 20 * 5 * 500 = 50,000 network requests.
The solution is to bundle the activity up into chunks. I describe the solution and how #PieFed does it here peertube.wtf/w/v5aWpxjS2P4pJSn… (probably only of interest to developers).

Nice. That'll work too - perhaps with target also an array so we can target multiple actor inboxes and also the sharedInbox on the same instance. That would save us a whole lot of packets and network transactions.
Even without that clause, it's sounding like the cleanest implementation yet.
