Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)
Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.
Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc
(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

The codebase is extremely shitty, instead people opted for complete rewrite.
how so?
There are several bad architectural decisions and when your architecture is wrong, the quality of the code itself doesn't really matter (to be more specific, I was talking about architecture in my previous comment, not the code itself, I don't know Rust so I can't really comment on that).
To fix the architecture, major parts would have to be rewritten, almost making it a different codebase, because pretty much no part would be left unturned.
