I feel the same way. As an author and a publisher, I like to keep what I wrote. On the majors, that's easy! I can search and find out what I sad on what day -- years ago!
On Mastodon, running my own instance, but managed by someone else -- I'm close to my storage limits. So, either I delete old content, and the length of Federation, or I pay double a month what I'm paying now if I want to keep my history alive. More retention = more money!
