    AP is largely peer to peer. nodes only pass what is requested (subscribed) by users. it would only take a little tweaking to get nodes to pass that data from the non-originating node to make it even more distributed.

    so the potential is there for AP, its already in use by thousands of servers. its where we should be focusing our attention rather than this AT crap.

    youre right microblogs do not take a ton of resources, you can almost run a node on a phone, but they lack the static addressing needed. thats said, microblogging… blech.

    the threadiverse takes quite a bit more resources because its not just a single person shouting into the void at other single people. its conversational and therefore orders of magnitude more complex.
