Written in a common programming language that many developers understand and which has a bright future ahead of it. Python, of course!

Not to be a complete downer, there are some good ideas which this project has, but I am really skeptical if Python is a good choice for this kind of application. Especally if it has to run on servers.

Python is slower than compiled languages, it's true, but it's still very fast. Bottlenecks are more likely to come from external connections to the frontend, other APIs, and database than from the server codebase itself.

Python is pretty performant for web services to be fair. But maybe social media isn't ideal for it?
