This is great! I’m eagerly watching what people are doing with the ui.

I used the ansible method to get running and I am using the default paths. If you are also using the default paths, you can find your data in /srv/lemmy// . This location will hold your configuration files and your volumes directory. The volumes directory holds postgres (the database), pictrs (your image hosting) and lemmy-ui (the web-ui for lemmy). To see how much disk space you are using:
cd /srv/lemmy/<domain>/
du -hc --max-depth=1 volumes
replace with your domain.
That is a good idea. I did a quick and dirty rclone mount for the pict-rs storage, partly because it was fast and partly because I was curious how it would hold up.
Yeah, images are where the main bulk of the storage is going. Interestingly, my instance is also just for my account presently and I have not submitted any images until my screenshot above. So these images are just those that are being pulled from other instances. I was under the impression that images were hosted from their respective instance and not saved locally, so I am curious to see how this plays out long term.
Been running ~22 hours at this point
I used the ansible route to get going. I am subbed to ~150 communities currently. Some of those won't stay, but for now I am subbing to almost anything to see how that affects disk usage. I am interested to see how, or if, it levels off over time and what a week or two out looks like. I expect by then we will all have many more tips for each other as we trial and error our way through.
Here's my current usage:
There's my current disk usage. I've gone wild subscribing to just about every community I come across to see how the storage adds up. Right now I've got ~150 communities subbed. We'll see how it goes and when I'll need to expand the storage.
Agreed. As much as I am saddened to lose out on some of the communities from reddit, I think this is the right direction. In time the communities will come back together and we will have been better off decentralizing.
I actively seek out new bands or releases in my favorite genres, but I still absolutely listen to the same things as I did 10, or even 20, years ago.
I always tell myself I am finally going to finish a long story-based game, but when I make time to play I end up always starting up something like Dead Cells where I can do a run and be done. I love huge, sweeping narratives and deep mechanics, but it always falls back to being exactly how you said it, "where was I? What was I doing again?" I can't always make time to play something, so when I do I tend to pick up something I can play in bursts. Games like Just Cause are great for this.
