@grips It's surprisingly not damaged. It's DJI Tello. It's fairly weak and small, so it can't withstand much wind.

So I tried to fly my drone outside and a gust of winter appeared out of nowhere and shot my drone up 40 meters into the air out of range. It played around with the drone for a while and then brought it slightly lower so I was in range and was able to control it for 2 seconds and lower it before it got out of range again. It pushed the drone into a tree right next to a stream, so I had to take a rake and make it fall. I got lucky since it didn't fall into the water.

I wanted to upload the clip of Aspen, but I couldn't because I encoded it into VP8 and since Mastodon converts everything right after you upload it and drops it if it isn't done under a minute, I couldn't upload it, because my 1 core VPS couldn't crunch it in time.

50 bux a month for 10TB. Same price as Wasabi, so it's really nice.

@djabadu
Well I can afford 10TB of storage and I can get up to 80TB so it's a problem for the future me.

@djabadu @grips It puts incoming and local media together. Even if it didn't I wouldn't see them on my instance if deleted them.
Once I can't afford storage I'm just gonna purge old media. 2GB a day is fine. At constant 2GB a day it's gonna take a few years before I won't be able to afford it.

@grips I meant the Mastodon system folder with media attachments etc.

The future isn't looking too bright. My system folder is growing at a rate of almost 2GB a day.

Is it a normal thing that instances delete old media files?
