Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Firstly move pict-rs to object storage. My instance's pict-rs uses 150GB alone. I pay less than $2/mo to put it on Cloudflare R2. Backblaze B2 might be even cheaper. Instructions: https://crates.io/crates/pict-rs#filesystem-to-object-storage-migration
If that doesn't help enough and you're comfortable with SQL, you can purge the unnecessary entries in
received-activities.Command:
delete from received_activity where published & NOW() - INTERVAL '3 days';(Lemmy has problems with ampersands so you'll have to edit it)Then do a
vacuum full received_activity;to reclaim the space.This deleted 98 million entries for me and reduced my database size from 49GB to 20GB a week ago when I started running out of space. No other effect as far as I can tell. Thanks @illecors@lemmy.cafe
Thank you, that SQL command looks like exactly what I'm after! I'm going to give that a shot. I appreciate the help!
