    me who was an idiot - should just have said "object storage", s3 is what amazon call their object storage provider.

  • @aeva 1 TB seems to be 3.20 EUR per month: https://www.hetzner.com/storage/storage-box/

    There are probably similar offers from other companies as well, because offsite backups at a different provider are a common requirement for professional deployments.

    OVH also has something, but their website is confusing, rather than a base price they charge per GB and month.

  • @aeva after a lot of looking my answer to this was crickets

    but I have two not-quite-adequate-but-still-worth-mentioning solutions

    there's several nextcloud vendors that have pretty decent prices, I rent my stuff from hetzner, about $5/month for 1TB of storage. if you don't know nextcloud, think "open source dropbox"

    but for my projects, what I settled on is a private forgejo instance. I have a little home cluster with 2TB in RAID1, and offsite backups at two different locations...

    and the only reason I can justify the maintenance cost of setting up and doing all this is because my particular brand of autism inexplicably classifies all this work into "leisure activities"...

    but yeah, if you happen to find a way to self host something like this, I can tell you it's going to be very snappy. if you've ever thought: "git doesn't work with binary assets files for games", that's just because you didn't have a full instance to yourself

  • @aeva yeah god

    also like. my history isn't in reality linear, right? like I'll try something and then I look at it and it's shit. so I go back a revision or two and start again and next time I save I probably save with whatever number is next up

    the linear history doesn't really reflect that

  • @finnmyrstad @pluralistic Dette er fantastisk! Gratulerer med helt nydelig video! Godt å se at forbrukerrådet er på ballen! Denne kommer jeg til å spre for alt det er verdt.

  • @aeva Backblaze, it's cheap as hell, you can encrypt your storage and the first 10gb is free

    I have 100GB sitting in it and it costs me $1 a month inc. tax

  • The video itself is pretty shitty. How it "informs" about enshittification without even using the c-word (capitalism) makes me wonder: is this a conscious choice (if so: what's the rationale behind this choice?) or a lack of consciousness?

    @dawid Indeed, switching from Instagram to the Fediverse initially feels like abandoning your friends for ideological reasons and moving to the desert. After a year of switching, very few of my friends have made the move to the Fediverse, which is really sad. But I've found completely new friends and am learning different things. The desert is alive, presumably with particularly resilient creatures!

    I'm against banning social media for under 16's. Just outright banning doesn't make something unavailable - just unregulated and not monitored. Alcohol and vapes are still common among under 16's - especial those that are vulnerable. I am for under 16's not being allowed on corporate socials though - as they are toxic places which do provably screw with brain development in youth - because of that algorithmic nature. I am considering pitching an idea to a local established non-profit that I sometimes work with, who run a number of local youth clubs across the region. It is an idea of setting up a fediverse instance for 11-15 year olds. An account can only be made in person alongside being a member of a youth club -with parent / guardian consent. It will not be federated to the general social web, and begin as a self-contained bubble - but with the idea of other regions creating the same thing and federating together. It would be moderated by the same volunteers / employees that run the youth clubs and social services - who are fully vetted, and follow the protocols - which already also includes moderating each other. Perhaps even somehow make it so the kids can't post on it during school hours, and after, perhaps, 10pm? There would of course be a set of standards expectations, or community codes of conduct, like here in the Fedi. Perhaps also running regular fun things too, that get kids thinking creatively (like what happens at the clubs anyway). There are of course many many issues with this idea, and I can't see it actually happening just like that. Not only is there unlikely the right fedi project to accommodate needs, but things like the online safety act potentially blocking the ability to create safe community based social networks for youth. And I'm sure there are many other issues as to why this idea might not work either. Like, what happens when someone turns 16? Are they just kicked off? However, I do know that corporate socials are bad - but not providing good safe alternatives when attempting to protect children, actually makes them more vulnerable and unsafe. We need a way to embrace them, not outcast them.#socialban #socialmedia #fediverse #activitypub #youthwork #onlinesafety

    The countdown to my surgery on Nov 5 has started, and my anxiety keeps growing😭. I’m learning about gastroscopy — it’s not too risky, but still scary for a first-timer🫣. Please wish me a quick recovery and share any advice or experiences you have. I’m also trying to cover the surgery costs, estimated at $200–$300, so any help or kind words would mean a lot ♥️🫂🙏🏻https://chuffed.org/project/117360-help-the-gaza-camp-kids-achieve-brighter-futures?fbclid=PAY2xjawIC_tBleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABpmeNKz2PdVJkLCdbqipvio79eTj5L3ased--KNdBIVwg0nqJWGMzekCfGA_aem_28GhSm4C09FzsFh16aOfgg#mastodon #socialmedia #gatosdemastodon #gazaverified #gazamutualaid #palestine #photography #viral #help
