Comments from the original poster:

Not much else needs to be said tbh. Fuck Spez. // Edit: Not sure why imgur marked the album as NSFW, but there's nothing NSFW in it other than the name of one of the mods including the word "removed"

Personal comment: the critter isn't even dead but the vultures are already flying in circles around it. I certainly do not envy their situation, I bet that the users will treat them like shit.

The idea behind UUIDs is that there are so many (128 bits) that you don't need to worry about allocating blocks or anything. Each post gets a random UUID, that's its ID, and it's propagated along with the post so other instances can reuse that UUID.

If each instance can have a unique prefix then there's zero chance of collision.

XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX

If those first 8 are the prefix that's room for over 4.2 billion unique instances, which is more than half the population of the whole planet. Do you think there'll be that many?
