I'll read that but before I do, I want to point out that developers generally have the latest, most expensive tech and they generally build for that first.

We are not talking about complex tasks like video transcoding or ML training. ActivityPub is first and foremost, a messaging protocol. The most heavy thing that "must" live on the device is the user data. Sqlite can handle those workloads without a sweat. Old devices that can do XMPP group messaging should be more than able to do this.
