three highest-risk decisions:
storage migration (filesystem → s3-compatible). open priority 0 question flagged
in OPEN-QUESTIONS.md. moving existing user media after launch means rewriting
database references, handling broken links, and likely requiring a period where
both systems coexist. risk: data loss or broken media references during migration.
mitigation: write to both filesystem and s3-compatible storage from day one
(dual-write), making migration a matter of retiring the filesystem backend rather
than moving data.
sqlite → postgres migration path. called "postgres-ready" but no documented
strategy exists. sqlite and postgres have different constraint semantics,
transaction behaviors, and query capabilities. a photo-first app will hit sqlite
limits faster than a text-only one. risk: architectural assumptions that don't
port, breaking migrations or queries at scale. mitigation: use a repository
pattern to abstract database specifics, add a migration test suite with realistic
media volume early, and document which postgres features you're avoiding to stay
sqlite-compatible.
fedify integration without v1 activation. fedify is in the stack but federation is
off, planned for v2/v3. building the core data model without understanding
fedify's requirements could force major refactoring later. risk: discovering
incompatibilities between your current schema and fedify's activitypub model
constraints after users have data. mitigation: prototype a minimal fedify
integration now to understand its schema and protocol requirements, then design
your core data model with those constraints in mind even if federation remains
inactive.
