@Reborn2966 I think so from the 3 seconds I looked at it, I just don’t really want to use a Syncing method for anything as it complicates things as well as commonly does charge and I don’t really have spare cash for it…

@Molecular0079 I’ll keep that in mind, I hope to more use them for Cold Storage Purposes for my old Video Edits. I hope to create a NAS in the future what I will most likely pay out for these more Pricy drives that are made for 24/7 use.
@WeirdGoesPro Thanks, yeah I’m a video editor so I go through a lot of media files and will always need to call back to previous work this is why I need such large Drives as the average joe doesn’t really use more than 1TB as I can easily fill that up with only a few Projects. I have an old PC that I put Ubuntu on a year or so back to try out Linux, Personally have to use Windows due to using the Adobe Suite but if I can have my files stored on there and move/access them from my other PC that would be amazing.
Luckily I will be able to test the theory of this out shortly as I will have access to my home office soon with it almost finished being decorated, can’t wait to see what I can do and will probably put some updates on this Community.
@Reborn2966 I’m not using Rsync, I’m just using Sync a program/site under sync.com it was alright but the price does not justify what I was using it for and I’d much rather just pay for USB Hard Drives and maybe even build a NAS in the future.
@WeirdGoesPro Yeah it’s one of the reasons I hope to self-host, I’d rather know what my data is being used for but also it will be cheaper in the long run. I will have to look into the drive things you where saying about as I don’t know how to self-host on a NAS and really would love to move to a NAS in the future.
@Khouzzeth_Froststone Then if the Fediverse is the best option for people to move to (What it does look like it), They will slowly crash and full if their user experience keeps slowly becoming worse.
@beefbaby182 Yeah it’s like a mix of both Lemmy and Mastodon, Has a few features missing here and there but they seem to be added quite quickly.
@beefbaby182 that is a fair point just hope Reddit falls slowly to force users to move across to platforms like Lemmy and Kbin
@chakan2 I know most of us are now Ex-Users
@sab It’s also about Quality, currently a lot of PeerTube Instances make you have a limit on how much space you have, if you self-host you can raise that limit to the amount of space you have. Most people who don’t create quality content might not last and possibly would just shut down their servers removing their content from the Fediverse.
But those who get donations and any other form of revenue would be able to keep going and even expand their storage if they need to allow their content to be a bigger part of the Fediverse.
Let’s take PewDiePie for instance, if he moved all his videos over to the Fediverse it would be only PewDiePie’s videos across the whole Fediverse but because of his money behind him, he can host them. Merch, Donations, and any other sponsorship could keep him running the server for another month, especially if someone already has or builds up a community of people that are willing to spend money on them.
@CookieJarObserver They as well as Twitter seem to be trying to kill themselves anyway. The more people jump off these platforms and move the Fediverse, the more likely these big tech social medias will most likely try and hold onto the Fediverse to try and survive.
@DannyMac Fair enough, didn’t know they had the older UI of Reddit for Lemmy.
@beefbaby182 Yeah here’s for either Reddit going down or for them to possibly join the Fediverse
@housepanther Yeah I think it will most likely be on a Tip based system unless people can work out something better for the Fediverse. It’s not that bad if it does become a Tip based system as long as people are willing to spend a little on the creators they enjoy sometimes.
@AccidentalLemming We need to make sure that these big tech companies don’t fall to quickly as outages of the Fediverse could kill it pretty quickly if the millions of users from even one platform did try to move across all at once.
@Godort Sounds like a pretty big positive for the Fediverse tbh.
@deegeese More the case of if they made it so their systems linked to ActivityPub and then Federated their servers. I would think that Reddit would get all the content that people are pushing away from Reddit and onto the Fediverse back towards there platform making users most likely not want to leave even more as they get the same thing they enjoy just with more things.
@sebi It’s trying to get people to keep up with it, it would be really hard to keep our smaller community of Fediverse users in control of what we are writing on Reddit as most of the current remaining Reddit users seem to rather not care or feel it’s to complex.
@svotay I feel as if Google has lost there touch on how to make the playstore good, Glad I only use it to download apps I already know I want to download instead of browsing to find new apps to try out.
@Molecular0079 I will probably use SSDs for my working storage (As it helps to have speed) but when it comes to Cold Storage / Long Term Storage due to the price of an SSD compared to an HDD I think it would be easier HDD as well as there’s some statistic I saw before about how HDDs last longer than SSDs, this might have changed in recent years but unless SSDs get cheaper per TB than HDDs I’ll have to probably use a mix for speed and size.
