@stux @jbaert @arasmastodon-belgium currently has a 30 day retention for remote media by the way (if they're accessed after that, they're re-downloaded), total media storage accumulates to ~450GB currently.We run and store everything on own hardware so if needed we can scale the storage up very quickly. Just need to add a disk to the SAN from time to time.

Zonet een mailtje gestuurd naar de eigenaar van mastodon.be met het voorstel om de domeinnaam over te nemen, gezien die instance nu gewoon al maanden down is.Wat denken jullie daar van ?#mastodon #MastodonBelgium

Helaas heeft Mastodon Belgium en Mastodon Vlaanderen er een tijd flink uit gelegen door problemen met de onderliggende storage 😟 (En natuurlijk als de Master Admin net ver weg van een PC was)Intussen zijn de problemen wel opgelost en is alles weer aan het opstarten.Excuses voor de storing !

@stux I feel your pain, just paid ~1K EUR on hosting costs 😕 In short:"If you like this service, thank* your sysadmin !"* : pay him/her a fair contribution to cover for the expenses.

@stux @mshallop @driesverlinden Not quite sure either.And due to storage usage, not sure if I would want to increase or work around that limit.If I'm not mistaken, the general advice on Mastodon if you want to post big stuff is to post it to a dedicated storage service somewhere and then link to it in your Mastodon post.

@stux That's one heck of a load (probably processing gigantic backlog) but good to see you're back !

@stux Currently I'm running the stock Debian one.Unsure if the newer version is faster.A lot will depend on how busy your CPU cores and disks are I guess.

@stux Ah !Well, at least they patched their version of ffmpeg eventually 😁 Why did you stay on 22.04 for the new server and didn't you immediately go for 24.04 ?Or for Debian Trixie ?I expect Trixie to be released as stable (halfway) next month but it should be ample secure and stable enough already to run Mastodon.

@stux @lauren I've seen this with older foto's from other instances that get boosted, but the media URL on that instance has since then changed - or something like it.The end result is that the image or video works on the original server, but not on a newer instance that tries to pull it in via the original downloa location.Or something like that.

@stux I'm planning to upgrade (well, try) my Mastodon test instance to Debian Trixie soonish, will keep you posted how that goes.When upgrading from Bullseye to Bookworm I had some issues as well but those got sorted.
