The creator of Newgrounds has considered adding ActivityPub support to join the fediverse but is worried it would make their hosting fees untenable by “serving files to millions of people on third party apps“. Can anyone with more knowledge on how this works help them?

Having Newgrounds on the Fediverse would be incredible. Newgrounds has a huge art community, many features not available on any platform and has been around the longest (1999)

With Tumblr joining ActivityPub soon enough™ we’re already going to see the impact on hosting stuff like that. If I were Newgrounds, I’d wait for Tumblr to switch over and see how they do it.
