   Just to confirm: quitter.se (and quitter.no) are dead, yes? Clearly, I missed a whole bunch of stuff on the social web last year when I was buried under research and teaching. Can anyone fill me in?

     @steve They are, yet quitter.se may come back to life at some point, but I wouldn't count on it.

     @xrevan86 Thanks. I wasn't planning on it coming back, and anyway people will have moved on. I am mostly hunting down people on other services and trying to reconstitute my feed with interesting people and content.

     @xrevan86 Do we know why it went away?

     @steve Apparently it was too resource-intensive, from what's been told.
     And yeah, everyone moved on, it's been a while.

     @xrevan86 @steve I moved on before it shut down. It was my first instance too bad the increased popularity is also what killed it in the end...

     @xrevan86 @steve I did every optimization I could come up with, but as the amount of activity went up, I eventually had to go dedicated and I still had performance problems with gnu social.

     We don't have Qvitter though, this may be the key resource-eater for the GNU social installations out there.

     All very interesting. Thanks for filling me in! I've kept my own GNU Social instance intentionally small.
