The LemmyNSFW is basically just eating up all the resources it can at this point, at first I thought it was just postgrea and the main server, but pictrs is also doing it.
I have stopped lemmynsfw processes on the server, but my VPS provider has limited performance on the server, so Fedinsfw will most likely be very very slow for a week :( sorry for the inconvenience guys.
It’s awesome that you try to keep the old site alive as archive, but if that means that the new site is throttled after just one day because the weekly quota was eaten up by the archive … I don’t know, man.
Maybe create a static dump of the site’s rendered HTML and images and distribute it as torrent?
Yeah a torrent is a good idea actually because the content is never expected to change. And depending on the folder strucutre, people could just seed a subset of communities to save space, so maybe only the communities they’re interested in.
How much space does the whole archive take up? I could spare a few TB on my NAS but I suspect it may be more than single digit TBs?
