Moving S3 from #BackblazeB2 to #Scaleway for Object Storage

https://ricard.dev/moving-s3-from-backblaze-b2-to-scaleway/

Very nice! You can use the good old https://cyberduck.io client with #BackBlazeB2 to upload, download or delete files

I will be using this as raw photo cloud backup on my next trip

@vash totally, I have them in #BackBlazeB2 and that's probably the cause of the slow delete.

#MastoAdmin

Removing media files (using #backblazeB2 ) is very slow

Running the command right now says 11.000 files pending to be deleted and estimated time is 1.5 hours

"tootctl media remove --days 4"

- Does this happen to you
- Any idea how to speed it up

@pasmac Thanks!

#backblazeB2 has no minimum fee. The $5 I mention are for #Linode

My current BackBlaze monthly total (GB, calls, downloads...) cost is 0.14€

Hope this helps!

Scaling Mastodon: moving media assets to Object Storage

https://ricard.dev/scaling-mastodon-moving-media-assets-to-object-storage/

@arda The pinned posts from @blasteh are a good starting point.

If you're going for #AWS #CloudFront for CDN instead I don't have any guide, just the official AWS docs.

Also for the initial sync, I used the AWS cli which works fine with #backblazeB2 https://aws.amazon.com/cli/

Hope this helps!

#MastoAdmin

Successfully moved to #backblazeB2 for storing my media files and added #AWS #Cloudfront as a CDN

I know it might've been better to use #Cloudflare

I'll give this setup a try and monitor the costs, should be very minimal with my S3 usage

#MastoAdmin

How do you upload all the existing local media cached files to #backblaze #backblazeB2 before switching the Mastodon config to use it?

Is there a CLI to do the initial import?
