didn't even know custom user styles were a feature, neat!
my bad, it's not a postmill feature
but still, thank you for all the hard work you do

i think i should just put that straight into postmill, honestly
until then, you could use a custom user style containing:
.submission--has-body .submission__link::after {
content: ' [Aa]';
}

Very late to this post, but another possible solution could be to cull the oldest uploaded images when we get close to storage capacity

I wished good things for cohost, it was doing a lot of neat stuff. I made an account and poked around but I've been down this road before so I was waiting to see if it stood the test of time (and also I'm still on tumblr lol). I always want these kinds of projects to succeed even when they're not quite for me, more places for people to choose between is better than fewer. It's sad. I really hope someone figures out how to sustain a non-tiny modern social media site that isn't owned by a huge megacorp someday. Or that the culture shifts enough that "pay $/month to be allowed to upload images" becomes a normal thing people don't balk at (can't imagine this happening but who knows)
When tumblr finally dies someday I'll be so fucking sad. In that event I really want there to be somewhere to go to that isn't another twitter clone. F

q30 is not that bad, it's the lower end of what's recommend for "web quality" lol

Right now, everything included, the VPS is using 15GB of its 50GB limit.
I bet most of that is because of f/2hu
If images ever become a problem, we can just turn off uploads.
Maybe we could also just limit the file size to like 200 KiB? I could just recompress my uploads to JPEG quality 30 (and also reduce the resolution if need be) in that case lol

Yeah jstpst isn't even close to shutting down, I feel I should mention that Lol.
Sad about cohost! There was a moment where I thought about posting there more, but a part of my reasoning to avoid it was just that there was no way it was going to last, I didn't really trust the management.
But yes! Thank you everyone for posting!

hmm, i think the admins and sysadmins are all in the united states lol
i can proudly say no govt agencies have asked me to do anything wrt jstpst, but i would also fold immediately if asked, so, fair warning

I'm not sure about doing a warrant canary tbh. It's going to be another responsibility to keep up on a regular basis (Raddle updated their canary monthly before they've made it irregular, and other companies do it every 6 months). Updating the canary itself is not the hard part (until you get an actual gag order), but rather remembering to do it lol. If you forget, users might think jstpst got compromised when it's not
If you're going to do it anyway, it might be a good idea to have at least one admin who is outside of 14 Eyes doing the cryptographic signing, so that a government agency from those countries couldn't just force an admin here to update the canary
