Are there any paid services for either Lemmy or Mastodon? Something where, given it is a subscription service, you would expect them to stick around long-term?

The growth is happening mostly in the pictrs and db containers. I know pictrs is optional if you're not uploading pics yourself, but I didn't want to limit myself on that. I haven't dived into where the db growth is happening yet either. Right now my hurdle is there doesn't seem to be any baked in maintenance tools, so it's all going to be me editing the database directly. I'm okay with doing it but need to figure out how to not purge content I have saved via Lemmy.

As far as NSFW stuff, there's a check box for the instance settings for enabling NSFW instance wide. I have it unchecked and haven't seen a single NSFW post browsing through my instance. It does require things to be marked as such though. I'll probably go the extra step and defederate the porn instances just to add another layer.

Please let me know if you find anything useful for maintaining the instance.
