okay, duckduckfedi, new question

wrote 21 days ago last edited by@soop No, unfortunately our VPS uses ext4 so there is no option for transparent filesystem compression
I know there is in-place conversion from ext4 to btrfs, but we'd rather not risk bricking everything we host which includes both our fedi and our XMPP which are very important to us
Maybe with a future upgrade we'll remember to do btrfs, then use zstd compression there. -

@alexia is it media or the database that's causing you trouble? not caching remote media can save quite a bit of storage very easily
wrote 21 days ago last edited by@kopper honest to god I just checked with theducommand what was taking up so much storage and got flashbanged with51G /srv/iceshrimpand didn't bother checking any further than that
but yeah good point we should probably turn that off -

set these to 0 and send an API call to
/api/iceshrimp/admin/drive/prune-expired-media(or in the dev versions there should be a button on the admin panel for it, unsure where though) -

@alexia if you just want optimal compression bcachefs is very efficent at that, but the current implementation is still a bit unstable and shaky performance wise so you shouldn't be using it yet, but it's something to note
