This is an opportunity for any users, server admins, or interested third parties to ask anything they’d like to @nutomic@lemmy.ml and I about Lemmy. This includes its development and future, as well as wider issues relevant to the social media landscape today.

Note: This will be the thread tmrw, so you can use this thread to ask and vote on questions beforehand.

    Disk space is definitely not an issue for us w/ postgres, or any text data really. The entire wikipedia english text data, is ~20GB. Images are the main disk-space concern for servers.

    A backup of lemmy.ml’s DB is only ~1.8 GB currently, and that’s 3+ years of data.

    We have no plans to move away from postgres, and lose all of its features and performance.
