Fediverse seems like its stabilizing: https://fediverse.observer/dailystats&days=1000

(and these are the servers that allow the crawler from the observer, so its highly likely the numbers are much larger).

We are seeing:

Overall pretty good! Keeping the momentum going. Thanks everyone, whichever platform/instance you hail from!

@rimu @turdburglar And it's worth noting that you don't have to use AWS for S3 buckets. I use iDrive, who are quite a bit cheaper than Amazon, and you can also opt to have your buckets on European servers, which may be a plus.

I think they have generous discounts in the first year to hook you in, but even after that they're still cheaper than Amazon.

Yup, or self host a S3-compatible server. Much easier to set up and maintain than peertube, I bet.

I believe Garage is the only self-hosted option that allows you to directly expose to html links though.

Might be nice if you could test that with Piefed some time ๐Ÿ˜Š
