Well, this time Invidious decided to grow it’s database to 1TB in about 3 days , leaving no space for other applications. It’s outrageous :upside_down_face:

Isn’t that too much :sweat_smile: ?
I wonder why does that happens, it seems like there are too many invidious users :slightly_smiling_face:

Don’t you have an alarm, if something like that happens?
Like, when the database is about to be full. :upside_down_face:

I would be more interested in first understanding how invidious works and why it is taking so much database space :upside_down_face:

Ah, I thought invidious is some maintainer of the distro :smiley:

Yeah, sure.

Still, a lot of things can fill up the database quickly.

I guess I am still burned from the old days, as my Linux distros were mounted entirely on /, and filling root resulted in a broken system. xD

Well, we do have alerts set up for disk space issues, that doesn’t help when people are sleeping. An alert notifying about an absurd increase of used disk space is missing however and would be useful in this scenario however :eyes:

That’s indeed a very valid concern, as this should not be happening in the first place.

Concerns are valid but I don’t have any knowledge :sweat:

I recently went off from all mainstream social media. I realised, that it has been such a waste in my life.

It’s like having some colored classes to the world, so that I would kind of devalue my own environment or trivialize it , which is a mistake.

I remember, before mainstream media, no one really cared deeply what anyone was doing outside of real connections and friendships. There was certain “calm” to everything that is not just there anymore. I hope we , who ever feels like it has affected them can get that calm back.

And what I mean by calm is I guess, the sanity of not needing all this content, info, and more content. The sanity of letting your mind rest.

The mind is not meant for all this, the connections in the brain get abused, I think.

People become more pretentious.

At somepoint in life, I just watched POV travel videos, because I was sick of seeing people and their social flex everywhere… Who has what and how well, and can the own up to … Who cares, really. Why should they?

I feel like, all it does in the long run, is muddy the water…

It smells me like the social media that you used was either x Twitter or some Zuckerberg stuff

Becaus even youtube recommends those contents that you like

Facebook + Instagram. Never really used Twitter.

Not planning to exit Youtube. I find it valuable.

As you have finally left the Facebook and Instagram, and If I compare myself to you then I never made any account in it (but yeah once i tried to make, but wasn’t successful because it required some phone number)

So your noobiness level is 7/10, compared to mine which is 2/10

Jokes aside, literally if you want some really good peoples then you can find only offline :slightly_smiling_face:
Emm… this forum is exceptional case:grin:

hmm… :thinking: Looks like we have a competition on hand.

Received my first smartphone when I reached college (no phones before that) my first whatsapp and instagram account were in college and I have slowly expanded to reddit. I do have a peculiar tendency that I have never liked or subscribed to anyone on youtube and have carried on this habit to instagram as well. I had to make exception for friends though.

Freq of usage:
whatsapp: mostly click on “mark as read” right from notification and never bother going in the app.
instagram: once a week to see what my friends are doing in life. We are geographically displaced from each other afterall.
reddit: Only when I see an interesting message from the arch or KDE community. I don’t know why I was receiving trans community messages for a while even though I haven’t even visited that subreddit until I manually added them to ignore.

What’s my noobness score. :laughing:
