Today, I worked on the user and tag pages to make them operate a bit faster and consume fewer hardware resources. Additionally, I implemented the first iteration of marking new comments in visited threads and posts. This is a test change and will be improved over the next few days. It’s progressing a bit faster than I initially anticipated. The remaining time is dedicated to fixing issues related to user account deletion and a new deployment method for /kbin:

        @ernest The thing that’s different from email for social media is moderation, which is why the host matters. Also, for both email and social media, the host matters for other reasons: you don’t want someone who’s going to lose all your email by going out of business suddenly, or who has poor uptime, etc etc.
        Saying “the host doesn’t matter” caused a lot of people to bounce off the Fediverse when they first tried it, because they wound up on hosts with terrible or no moderation.

    What exactly is the Turbo Mode? I turned it on, but can’t see any difference in behavior on my end, but I’m not sure what I should be looking for.

        Ahh, okay I see what you mean now. Interesting. It actually makes page loads slightly slower on my old-ass Chromebook (but that’s on me; this machine is a few years out of support for updates).

        I wonder if this is better or worse for server performance, though.

          This may be more noticeable on weaker internet connections. There is also browser-side caching, so it may not work perfectly everywhere. Currently, this is an experimental version. For the server, it’s marginally better, but there are no significant differences, is more about the user experience.
