Yep, that’s what their design language is called. It’s changed a lot over the years, but still kept the same name

What are the backend protocols for federation? I wonder if it’s true server load (physical lack of compute) or something like network bottlenecks (which we might be able to see by using things like NIC utilization and error rates).

Network bottlenecks may be addressable at the protocol layer with improvements to how federation works.
