I'm starting to notice some bad decisions I made regarding @pixelfed database structure

In 2018 when I first started Pixelfed, I took a lot of inspiration from Mastodon, and while their DB structure makes sense for them, I'm realizing that it's starting to limit us

Storing posts, replies, and shares in a single table doesn't make sense for us

Fixing this will be fun, I love challenges and look forward to blogging about it after a seamless deployment.

The goal is to make this unnoticeable 😎
