Discussion about the aussie.zone instance itself
Not much to call out. The storage drop was due to purging a days worth of images, and clearing the entire object storage cache. When I have time, I'll upgrade the VPS to add storage.
These are cool thanks for posting them
Besides the obvious big drop from the purging, what are all the other little drops every day (or perhaps 2?)
Sorry if you've answered before
Midnight is something internal to Lemmy, I think it's just a DB cleanup. The other is clearing unused caches items from Wasabi.
Mind providing some detail on the latter, in terms of what the unused items are and how it's checked and then cleared? Always looking out for new efficiencies I can incorporate in my own setup.
Basically deleting files from the Wasabi cache directory that haven't been accessed in whatever time threshold I've specified as X:
find -atime +X -exec rm {}
