I pipe the Mastodon media files cleanup script on berserker.town to my inbox. It doesn't know it's being piped though, so it dutifully prints the progress bars anyway...

@thor Well, I guess because those commands are not really meant to be used for a regular, automated use.

You can define many of those things in the settings and mastodon itself is then scheduling the cleanup tasks.

@thor They are all part of the content retention settings.

The only thing that doesn't get called regularly is the remove-orphans function.

The function loops trough all folders and files on the S3 backed.
As many S3 providers charge also for every api call, this can become a very expensive action, very quickly.

As orphan files should not occur that often, it should only be used on a case by case basis.
