Looking to maybe self host my own instance, I’m still learning about the fediverse. If a different instance that I federate with hosts something illegal are there risks to me? Is anything from other instances hosted on my server like a copy of it? Or would I only end up hosting things my users post? I’m paranoid and sorry if this is a silly question.

    How are you keeping your pictrs directory so small?

    Mine is at about 5GB after two weeks with just a single user. 😬

      I also have around 3GB used for pictrs and I’m not really sure the best way to see what all content is in there.

        Yeah I haven’t uploaded any images on my instance myself. So none of those images are mine. Might do some reading tomorrow and see if there’s any mention of this in the past on other communities. It’s not an emergency but I’m curious.
