Doing it this way means minimum potential for any parallelism/locking issues. It also means that the inbox queue is not highly scalable, but that's ok for a system which is only intended to have a few users per instance. All ActivityPub posts are stored as text files, and there is no database as such other than the filesystem itself. Think of it as being like an email server. Each post is a json file stored in *accounts/nick@domain/inbox* or *accounts/nick@domain/outbox*. To avoid parsing problems slashes are replaced by hashes within the ActivityPub post filename. The filename for each post is the same as its ActivityPub id. - +![timeline and core modules](./raw/main/architecture/epicyon_groups_Timeline_Core.png) ## Themes security
