I'm going to try XFS deduplication for Synapse and Peertube and hopefully it'll save a bit of space
@sjw Thanks. I know, I followed the article you linked me a while. Now I'm waiting for Peertube rsync to transfer the files. Servers have 1Gbit so it should be done soon. The RAID still hasn't synced yet though so that's gonna slow down the dedupe.
@sjw
Deduplicating juice Peertube saved 12.6GB out of 1.4TB, but that's to be expected. I'm expecting a bigger impact once I move Synapse

Fuck autocorrect
@sjw With Synapse it saved 35GB from 400GB, which is quite decent.
@sjw Synapse is a Matrix server
`duperemove -hdr --hashfile=/dedupe-hash.db --dedupe-options=same,block /mnt/storage`
First pass will be slow af but it'll build an sqlite database at /dedupe-hash.db so in the future only new files will need to get hashed and deduped.
Replace /mnt/storage with your mount point.
