async doesn't decrease the amount of CPU cycles needed to do work, in any case it only increases it.

In my experience most people creating CRUD websites with Django will hit a CPU bottleneck.

Yes. If you can afford the CPU power, by all means go with Python. Otherwise just don't.

Instagram can afford it so it works fine for them. Reddit can't, so their site is always slow or down.

Nice clickbait. A database from a B2C provider, not personal texts from a telco.

What makes you think those "entitled pseudo devs" as you call them charged the client for a premium version? You're making an assumption too many.

"Riseup provides online communication tools for people and groups working on liberatory social change." Does this sound neutral to you? Have you seen the half-red, half-black star which they use as a logo?

I never change wallpapers... who cares. I mean, you always have a window covering it.

Yes, I'm really looking forward to an inferior, super-censored version of Google (hate speech laws, anti-piracy laws, right to be forgotten laws, etc) paid with my taxes.

Every time someone says "I think the EU is overreaching here" the response always is "the EU literally has no power at all"

Actually you might be right: it's really Germany and France pulling the strings here.

Problem is when you have a shitty language like Python that does almost no optimisations so you're forced to write "clever" code if you want it to run reasonably fast.

Seems like the actual name is GNUnet, I don't know why this title of the submission but I guess it mirrors the logo... bad choice

Pretty sure someone like Putin knows how to pull the strings without actually being the president of anything.
