What is their format?

this is BS right? CBOR

but the events include the pictures, not sure, maybe videos too

i had an extensive exploration of this for Arweave and i told them if they were to upload the data they'd blow their whole network up

here we see i was right

i already saw Steemit blow up just from a 100k+ beyond the point you could sync it on an average pc 7 years ago, that was on a blockchain haha

the tool i built for arweave was gonna chew some serious bandwidth as well i guess

costs quite a bit of money to hammer through more than a terabyte of bandwidth a month, i'm not doing it for funsies

oh yeah, this is the thing, it wasn't so much the data format, as the complexity of it, even though it's binary, they have a gazillion little nodes in the structure that take up space even when empty, and most of them are empty, and mean nothing, a bit like the content of their words and thoughts

also, i tried not to read too much of the actual text in the messages, but it was what i was extracting and some of it was really ick, way worse than the garbage you get on mastodon loli posters

i feel like maybe i should have made more of a fuss about what brain rotting garbage was flowing through my wires on their account and into my poor, PTSD brain
