i wonder how much faster akkoma would be if it didn’t store JSON objects in a massive object table

i know why it’s done like this, but perf suffers soooooo baaaaadlyyyyyyy

is there a way to force fetching all encryption keys (i.e. what I think happens automatically when scrolling up in the history) without doing that manually in #element / some other #matrix client? Or is my understanding of how this works incorrect? :boost_ok:

I'd love to learn more about compiler theory and fancy things you can do with the right IR but until then I'll do constant folding and dead code elimination directly in the AST

Sorry compiler people :neocat_pensive:

Before the new release I might still attempt a typescriptification of the @owntracks frontend. Vue 3 will probably be a major version bump (i.e. frontend 3.x) but I'm getting to a point where gradual update seems doable instead of needing another rewrite.

Once all of this infra work is done I might look at some long requested features - better outlier filtering, better date selection, timeline, height plot (maybe as a 3d map?), and perf work (I bet there's a bunch of O(n^2) loops in there!)
