I got similar errors when I was running out of disk space. Maybe not the same problem you had but just mentioning
I wonder how much disk space the big instances are using... I'm only at a dozen users. I have subscribed to most of the largest communities across the "threadiverse" so my instance is caching a copy of everything happening across those. I'm under 2GB space used so far.
I imagine it's mostly the media uploads. I think that doesn't get cached, just the text. But anything a user uploads will get saved to their instance's storage. I think.
I think we're at around 25GB at the moment.
Huh, that's it? I think my free 150GB on my server will do nicely then. I plan to cap my user count at 100 (active) so it doesn't get out of hand.
I was also under the impression that instances don't cache remote images, but I'm seeing a lot of cached images under
volumes/pictrs/files.I think it caches thumbnails. And I imagine it probably deletes older ones?
