@transcendentalConsensus have you looked into http://masto.host ? it might be cheaper to hand it off to them
@squirrel
it says the resource limit is reached?
i can check tho
if i can make the cost cheaper thatd be fine too tbh
i just need to make it affordable
@transcendentalConsensus what are you using to host?
computer fairies is on a 2gb linode with aws s3 for media and we run just under $20 a month, not counting domain renewal, and we're not that small of an instance...
@squirrel
im using linode too, but i kept having to upgrade storage space
i have no idea how to navigate aws honestly
are you at least purging old remote media (i forgot how to do that you'd have to ask a better admin)
maybe @chr can help with aws? there was a guide somewhere...
@transcendentalConsensus @chr keeping old remote media around is the main cause of running out of space with media yeah
and linode isn't great at disk expandability, because you're also paying for other extra stuff (it's locked to CPU and ram upgrades too)
my two suggestions would either exploring alternatives like digital ocean (more expensive on the vps hardware front but cheaper for disk upgrades alone) or setting up aws so you can free your vps' disk and downgrade back
Yeah, I can try those things.
Like, I don't wanna delete it, so if I can just like figure out a way to make it not cost so dang much that would help a lot.
I'm just like so low on spoons so planning anything is just so much more effort than I can manage right now.
I'll do some research tho, thanks for the leads
@squirrel @chr Oh nice
If I have like a guide I can probably manage tbh
It's just real overwhelming when I dunno what to do haha
