The issue isn’t who fixed it it, the issue is the lack of testing to find these bugs. It was there for years before anyone noticed it was hammering PostgreSQL on every new comment and post to update data that the code never read back.
There have been multiple data overrun situations, wasting server resources.
But now Lemmy has you and Phiresky looking over the database and optimizing things so things like this should be found a lot quicker. I think you probably underestimate your value and the gratitude people feel for your insight and input.
