Kbin and NoSQL (kbin.social)

Hi there ! (First post ever yay!)

I’m, like a lot of users lately, been migrating from Reddit to Kbin and Lemmy.

I finally had a good reason to contribute by writting HelmCharts to run Lemmy and Kbin on Kubernetes ( hopefully some of you might be interested !)

Anyways, i was wondering whrn analysing the docker stack of Kbin if instead of running postgresql, it could be replaced by a NoSQL service such as MongoDB.

I felt like the concept of the fediverse and the data structure seem pretty compatible.

And since there have been some performance issues ( probably for database) lately, it might be an interesting way to deal with large volumes of data.

Let me know what you think !

Cheers!

A very interesting take ! They might have been a way to structure the data, but indeed it might make more sense to use a relational DB.

Thanks for the answer ^^
