I’ve recently switched from a self-built Lemmy without pict-rs to the standard docker image that has pict-rs included. However, I’m noticing that the amount of pictures pict-rs stores on my instance is quite high. Any ideas? Is Lemmy preemptively mirroring all images in all posts?
What the Wandermeister over here said.
Object storage generally is much cheaper than vm disk space (I got 1TB for $5/month at vultr). And the sooner you do it, the better - the migration process took 3 hours for me yesterday, transferring just over 102k files (34 GB).
