@movq@www.uninformativ.de i’m sorry if I sound too contrarian. I’m not a fan of using an obscure hash as well. The problem is that of future and backward compatibility. If we change to sha256 or another we don’t just need to support sha256. But need to now support both sha256 AND blake2b. Or we devide the community. Users of some clients will still use the old algorithm and get left behind.
Really we should all think hard about how changes will break things and if those breakages are acceptable.

I share I did write up an algorithm for it at some point I think it is lost in a git comment someplace. I’ll put together a pseudo/go code this week.
Super simple:
Making a reply:
- If yarn has one use that. (Maybe do collision check?)
- Make hash of twt raw no truncation.
- Check local cache for shortest without collision
- in SQL:
select len(subject) where head_full_hash like subject || '%'
- in SQL:
Threading:
- Get full hash of head twt
- Search for twts
- in SQL:
head_full_hash like subject || '%' and created_on > head_timestamp
- in SQL:
The assumption being replies will be for the most recent head. If replying to an older one it will use a longer hash.
