@hollo@hollo.social

is currently testing .js instead of . (In fact, the hollo.social server is already running on Node.js!) If this test is successful, starting with the next release, Hollo will be powered by Node.js instead of Bun.

The main reason for switching to Node.js is to optimize memory usage. As you can see in the graph image below, Node.js uses significantly less memory than Bun. With this switch, Hollo is expected to be even more lightweight than before!

Are you interested in trying out the Node.js version of Hollo early? Try to pull ghcr.io/dahlia/hollo:0.4.0-dev.290!

Hollo's memory usage graph. When I was running on Bun, it used about 4GB of memory, but after switching to Node.js, it uses about 0.5GB of memory.
