Great success! I've returned my instance back to local storage, all in aid of reducing costs in other cloud platforms.

I had set up nginx to cache my S3 media in SSD cache space, so now I need to modify that config to do the same for my media living on high-capacity spinning rust.
I know that as a small instance this isnt really needed, but who knows, maybe I'll have a sudden influx of new users and will be glad of having it set up!

#sysadmin #mastoadmin #homelab #backblazeb2

tootctl media remove --days=7

ETA: 41:56:22

Ah. This'll take longer than just a single coffee break. Ah well. See you all on the other side of a great media purge!

After that, it's syncing my B2 bucket back to my local disk!

@boracle I’m still on Windows 10, but I’ll be switching to Debian soon.

I recently switched to Kopia because it’s cross-platform, and I’m backing up to B2 Backblaze, which costs $6 USD per TB per month.

So, backing up 0.5 TB means I only pay $3 per month.

Kopia offers fine-grained control over what and when you back up, and you can access your backup repository from anywhere.

❗ PSA: If you're using #BackblazeB2 cli for your backups ❗

In v3.18.0 (not even a major!) they switched all the camelCase flags to kebab-case. This means any command that still includes the camelCase flags will just fail with "unrecognized arguments".

So one of my servers has not been making backups since Mai of 2024. Fun! Glad I caught that before worse happened.

Ouch, I just went over my #BackblazeB2 Class B transaction cap…
Any #Synology fans out there? If so, I have a question for you all, I currently use Microsoft #OneDrive for #CloudSync in mine, I have less than 1 TB of data, it seems like cost is the same than #BackblazeB2 and #SynologyC2 but I get access to the rest of the office apps that I occasionally need. Am I missing something here?
