To go there in 30 days you'd need to disregard any orbital mechanics and just burn straight there. This would require an extraordinary amount of energy. Also surely making plasma from an electrical current must require, again, an extraordinary amount of energy. Also the faster you accelerate the more fuel you need to expend to DE-cellerate when you get there.
I dunno man, seems like bullshit. I'm no rocket scientist, obvs. But at a gut-feel level, this seems way off.
I guess NodeBB or Discourse would not qualify as they were forums that now have AP tacked on as an afterthought. Same for WordPress.
But yeah all the big names are original, fediverse-first software.
