#Admin #Indieweb.social

This instance now has 9,347 people with this as their home base...With being so busy on admin work, I missed us crossing that line.

From instnaces.social: this makes us 0.15% of total 6,150,381users they scan on the whole #Fediverse.

Here's to the medium-small instances of the world, the #Fediverse needs to scale horizontally, with thousands more of this size.

@tchambers One set of stats that I haven't seen is the traffic volume. Bytes in/out per user per day is one of the biggest potential go / no go questions in most public cloud deployments I can think of. I saw some docs suggesting that the volume makes s3 media storage non-cost-effective but having it quantified would be very useful because it applies to CDNs as well.

@raphaelluckom @tchambers I turned up an instance to play my part in the overall scheme. What I don't find is what are the storage requirements per user. What should I be prepared for in the future? Two users today, but what do I need for 1K, 10K, etc.?

@unwired @raphaelluckom Nice! I've seen estimates that 100 users is about 10 GB.

@tchambers @raphaelluckom Wow! Much better than what I feared.I started with 4TB of storage and unlimited 1Gbps bandwidth. It sounds like I am good for awhile. Making the presumption that my server will provide resources for new users. #Presumptuous #WillingToHelp
