sigh Scaleway is so bad. Whatever you touch doesn't work as expected. And their support's default answer is "there must be something wrong on your end".
I wholeheartedly cannot recommend Scaleway anymore.
#scaleway just mailed me apologies and 3-month voucher for charging me for my object storage bucket in December. Turns out they intended to notify me upfront but somehow their mailing tools missed me so I didn't get the upfront notification.
If you're using #scaleway's cold/object storage, then they SILENTLY backtracked from their "first 75GB is free" "promotion". Relatively recently they mentioned they'll charge for retrieving objects from Glacier but "forgot" to mention about that.
Testing out OVH Cold Archive (LTO tape backed)
11.02TB stored came out to ~$23 post-tax.
This data is immutable and cannot be accessed or deleted without recovery, plus requires a 180 day minimum storage time (if you delete it before then you are charge the remaining time).
Comparing to Scaleway C14, this is definitely more affordable for the same amount of data, but is however less flexible; C14 has no min-time and is easier to restore and push to. #Datahoarder#OVH#Scaleway#S3#LTO
Why is #Scaleway, an #EU based company, using #Google Docs to notify people of products being back in stock... when they literally have the infrastructure to run CryptPad https://cryptpad.org/
Okay, #scaleway responded fast (less than hour after creating ticket - far after european working hours). Seems they locked me because I haven't given them my phone number. Let's give them another shot.
Anyone has any idea what EXACTLY means "first 75GB is free" in #scaleway bucket storage? Is that first 75 GBh (as it's billed per GB/h) or 75GB of actual data no matter how long I keep it in bucket?
Why does #Photoprism not support S3 for uploads??? That seems like a no brainer option to support for this kind of thing... sure, you can keep the metadata in the database, hold things for processing locally, but after that, you don't need to keep the originals on the hard drive anymore, they're taking up valuable disk space...
I have it set up to periodically push the pictures I've uploaded to #Scaleway, which I have set up as a WebDAV server (via rclone) to do that... but I'm pretty sure I can't delete them from the hard drive or it has nothing to go off of (since it probably doesn't know to check on WebDAV for non-local pictures...)
I might be better off just sticking with #Google Photos and paying them for it. It's not a service I can afford to run or lose.
