I’ve been wondering about these questions for a while now but the docs were scarce.
- Does loading an image (cache/thumbnail) from external hosting takes up any server storage? UPD: yes, it does If so, is it cleaned up when original image deleted?
- Do (internally hosted) “orphan” images (not linked to any post/comments) get deleted?
- Any recommendations for image hosting? Preferably freemium+donation based, open source, able to keep spinning until end of times – all that jazz
- In relation to creating posts on lemmiverse: any hints for streamlined workflow uploading images to external hosting? (bookmarklets, scripts, custom frontends)
- Are there any promising Lemmy initiatives for optimizing storage usage?
Got any questions of your own about image hosting? Let’s hear it
