@stefano thanks for your post! I've considered switching from Minio to SeaweedFS as well, but haven't really made a decision, yet. SeaweedFS seems to be very simple to set up. 💪

@thomas I did it and it's been easier than expected. Now, SeaweedFS is my first choice for Mastodon Media hosting

@stefano interesting. do you have any idea how it compares to https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage ?

@linus I tested it. After more or less 60 GB, it started to be extremely slow and fill up all the CPUs. I decided to stop. I've been contacted by one of the devs and they suggested me to try a newer release. And I'll definitely do it as I love the concept.

@stefano
For what scale do you think it is reasonable to break out media to its own service? I only have experience of up to a couple of hundred users with plain filesystem storage. -

But I'm a fan of keeping things separate (valkey on one jail, postgres on another, etc.)

@stefano Ah, I am not fond of running a lot of different services if I can get away without, from a maintenance burden point of view.

@maswan for me, it's the exact opposite: having all the services inside a single jail means that one dependency could break other stuff - while keeping them separate means I can upgrade, for example, valkey without having to upgrade, for example, ruby

@stefano I'm trying SeaweedFS as a S3 storage (and FUSE mounts, too) on my daily job and looks wonderful so far. Such much easier than Ceph to set up.
I'm also pushing a bit to have more metrics. 🤣

@77nn Rifiuta la modernità, abbraccia la tradizione!

È Natale… poi arriva Capodanno… e subito dopo la Befana.
Un trittico di giorni che, per chi ci crede o no, ha un potere strano ma reale… quello di rallentare il rumore e far respirare la testa.Allora dichiariamolo ufficialmente, un periodo di pausa e leggerezza. Un periodo in cui proviamo, anche solo un po’, a essere più positivi verso tutti. A rispondere con un sorriso invece che con un muro. A dare spazio a ciò che unisce, invece che a ciò che divide.
Perché l’anno nuovo è lì, ormai e io voglio che qualcosa cambi.
Lo so… sembrano i soliti propositi che si ripetono ogni anno. Ma stavolta lo sento diverso. Non so se in bene o in male, però so una cosa con certezza… io ci voglio entrare dentro, in questo 2026, con intenzione e coraggio.
E la mia scelta è chiara.
Voglio dedicarmi più che mai al #Fediverso italiano. Non per “fare scena”, non per parlare… ma per fare. Per migliorarlo, anche solo di un centimetro alla volta. Più accoglienza, più collaborazione, più comunità, più persone che si aiutano invece di farsi la guerra per niente.Ci riuscirò?
Qualcuno seguirà l’esempio?
Chi già ci sta provando avrà voglia di unire le forze?Non lo so.
Però so che vale la pena provarci. E che certe cose cambiano solo quando qualcuno smette di chiedere “chi lo farà” e decide “inizio io”.
Io ci sto.
E tu?🙏

Sono curioso di sapere cosa ne pensa la mia bolla di #fediverso italofono su questo.
