@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. 💪

@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

@admin Huge congrats on the move. Bikers Go Social is officially live on GoFedi infrastructure and running clean. Appreciate the trust. Appreciate the teamwork.
Looking forward to seeing the updates as everything settles in. Forward we go.

We would like to thank @gofedi@social.gofedi.com for helping migrate over Bikers Go Social.
We will be putting out little updates through the next upcoming weeks, especially as the server sets in place.
Thank you all for an amazing journey the past year.
