Unpluming

I've tried hard to love it but Plume has too many negatives

I think I may be about to remove Plume. So this is by way of advance warning when the URL suddenly starts returning a holding page (likely a game).

The issues:

  • No way to turn off the steady stream of spam into the Federated feed
  • Poor federation controls generally
  • Almost no updates
  • It is greedy for CPU time and memory
  • Seems to have started running wild and crashing the server

So, it will be bye-bye Plume next time it misbehaves, sorry. I will most likely put another (non ActivityPub) CMS on txt.webm.ink instead.
