minus-squaremarsara9@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoYa, ActivityPub isn’t without it’s issues… but luckily it’s all just text. Much of that can be compressed significantly.
minus-squarelorcster123@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 year agoI wonder what the total data storage size is for all the publicly viewable content on reddit. I find it hard to even guess lol. 100TB? 10,000TB?
minus-squareRoboticMask@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 year agoThe compressed archive of reddit from 2005.5 until 2022 is 2 TB: https://academictorrents.com/details/7c0645c94321311bb05bd879ddee4d0eba08aaee Uncompressed it is likely way larger though.
