@babbage My testing on that, ended up not working because the cost of maintaining a (fast and reliable) very large database with all files is more expensive than the storage space.
Also, I have automated cache cleaning in place: https://masto.host/re-mastodon-media-storage/
But there could be better ways of doing it, I just haven't found one where the CPU/RAM costs are not higher than the storage.
Also, bandwidth costs are many times more significant than storage and those cannot be offset.
@aral Yep, the other items are automatically cache deleted using `tootctl` with the number of days mentioned on https://masto.host/re-mastodon-media-storage/
But `tootctl` does not allow to clear the Avatars/Headers cache and they are cached indefinitely for everyone that has ever federated with your server.
