If you wonder how much disk space you need to run your own Mastodon instance, here are our stats of a server with a handful of active accounts:
Attachments: 8.51 GB (462 MB local)
Custom emoji: 477 MB (74.8 KB local)
Preview cards: 457 MB
Avatars: 4.29 GB (1.89 MB local)

Backups: 0 Bytes

Disk usage is pretty stable after a while. We do backups with our own mechanism, so YMMV.

Finished "Far from the Tree" by Robin Benway last night. For me, it was a gripping and absolutely delightful read. I can recognize that I'm absolutely unequipped to judge whether it authentically reflects the experiences of many or few of the people whose situations are similar to the protagonists', but I find myself fervently hopeful for the former, even as I recognize such hopes in the part of people like me can be part of ultimately harmful publishing selection feedback loops. (If anyone reading this happens to have read the book and found it distasteful, I'd love to hear that.) Notwithstanding my probably overcautious uncertainty, I'll definitely be seeking out more books by Benway. At the very least, I really enjoyed her little joining and framing metaphors, and the pacing and plot construction were good, with lots of nicely interwoven implications arising through the buildup, and an ending that left me satisfied (albeit, I'm an inveterate optimist, YMMV).
