(I use django in production myself, nothing against it)

It's probably worth noting Meta made their own JIT'd version of CPython just for Instagram/Threads. Maybe mastodon devs can use their interpreter, but Meta's human/compute resources are magnitudes more than mastodon, the lessons from Meta might not be very applicable.

Isn’t Mastodon written in Ruby?

Yes, I wasn't sure if parent was suggesting they switch to django, or simply "using what facebook learned" - I didn't want to imply that there's no way Mastodon devs couldn't use Cinder to their advantage.

I do however highly doubt Cinder would be of use to Mastodon at the current moment.
