It's just text but I'm sure I'm underestimating it, especially at social media scale.

Anyone smarter than me know how much storage (I assume that's most of the problem) overhead we're talking with a version control system?

Given, we may not have a version control system that is appropriately designed for social media yet, so pre-existing software like git might not be efficient.

Not much, and something with branches would be overengineered
