Google Translate:

First of all, the ActivityPub system is not suited to something like Misskey, which flows at lightning speed.

It was originally designed to connect blogs, small-scale SNSs, and wikis.

How can it handle the TL hell where tens of thousands of requests fly in per second?

It's based on the idea that it would be nice if various small services could send each other updates, so it's quite costly.

I saw a separate post linked in the Reddit thread on this, where it was said.

Via machine translation:

I won't be leaving the federation immediately, but I will be migrating to the low-overhead federation system MisskeyHQ is developing. Servers incompatible with that system may eventually lose connectivity.

The full transition will likely take several years, so it should be fine until then.

Don't know more information than this. But the wording there suggests to me that what they're switching to isn't fundamentally incompatible with the fediverse. They seem to be treating loss of compatibility as an allowed risk, not a guarantee. So they're probably just implementing some changes that go against the spec with no regard for compatibility, but sticking to AP for the most part.

Welcome!

Can you imagine, years ago how the internet was before? We know Facebook, Twitter, Tiktok, Youtube. We knew blogger, Tumblr, Skyrock... and long before, it was the forum era as phpBB..and mail-lists.

And now with ActivityPub, we are reshaping the web, and achieving much more with lots of freedom. So thank you all, and welcome ๐ŸคŸ๐Ÿ˜
