I'm just a humble country chicken admin, but I've been thinking a lot about the cost of the fediverse and how we can improve it for all of the instances... in a coop kind of way
The cost of handing all of the media is THE major problem for me atm.
@shlee in the absence of a better solution, could it be worth building your own object storage server running MinIO or similar? You can get refurb/recertified HDDs in bulk for around $19-$21/TB (14TB for $260 - 18TB for $380 - 22TB for $580 depending how dense you wanna go).
That said, there really should be a better way than downloading everything on Fedi everytime!
I think the #fediverse is the kind of thing that has to happen to a social system like the Internet to force you to be engaged, more self-sufficient, and not reliant upon the largesse of government subsidies and vampiric commercial entities.

"Thus, an “influencer” could easily post a link to an article written by someone else within their own social media feed. The conversation was removed from the blog post and instead developed in the influencer’s feed. As a result, carefully written articles have become a mere resource for influencers."
