@risottobias @dansup You know, it's not always simple to generate sample data that are realistic enough. 😂

@hongminhee it can still be real data, but it probably only needs to be a fraction of the prod DB.

pulling a random 30-100 set of servers for each of mastodon, pixelfed, peertube etc for a new feature for the 1-5gb DB on your laptop,

then testing on the half-size DB on the LAN,

then testing on a cloud server that runs beta.fedidb.org

then testing on prod.fedidb.org

enough that pagination happens, but likely whatever feature you're trying can be tested with a smaller copy, before testing with a larger one.
