@pactox My guess is what you experienced was due to using a low powered VM on a busy host. Erlang (which Elixir is based on) is known to be very fast and can handle lots of traffic, much more so than most other languages, as it's multi-threaded and concurrent out of the box, and has been since the 1980's.

I would say with the right hardware it's performance is on par with, or perhaps exceeds anything written with Go, but it may not perform well on low-end VM's. On real hardware Erlang/Elixir is seriously fast.
Is UI of #Bonfire actually slower and heavier than, e.g. Mastodon and similar, or is it just this instance out of resources?

Hi, I wonder if you could setup Bonfire so images descriptions would be written to/from the ImageDescription metadata field? If no image description was inserted, Bonfire could default to showing this field as alt text…? #bonfire_feedback
@Oceane I'm curious what images (i.e. coming from which sources) are likely to have already information in that field? We've discussed and even prototyped something like this before, but it unfornately requires doing some extra JavaScript processing client-side or waiting until the image is uploaded (which only happens when you click publish)...
Ok. First things first. Banish dark mode! Now I can actually see what's going on.
@Henrick Did you find the place where you can change that setting? campground.bonfire.cafe/sett...

Trying again bonfire after several months. It seems it's getting better and better 🙂
@ilsarto thanks!

@triptych sounds super interesting and doable, if you're interested in building it in public, we'll be here to support you 😃
@ivan I'm excited to get started. Looking at code right now.

Hello, campground folks! I am exploring using Bonfire for a number of projects, including creating some plugins to allow folks to create serial novels. I hope something like this will be doable via this platform?
