I had fun building this. Wanted to make it feel very quick despite the large data set. Also wanted it to be very low maintenance with little to no running costs ($0 currently). It’s a static Jamstack site, using vanilla JS, hosted on Netlif

Interesting. Private companies have now become the moral arbitrators and censors of the global social media platforms they control vs in China where the government takes on this role. Wonder which is more dystopian.
