I also noticed the logs were growing and taking up quite some gb’s. I’ve used truncate
to make the syslog smaller and journalctl
vacuum
to keep that smaller
i’m trying to find documentation for this config but can’t find any. Do you have a link maybe ?
thanks for your detailed how-to ! Will try this, hopefully it holds 2 more weeks I’m leaving for holidays now :)
oh it’s visible because I’m admin/ mod ?
http_response metrics are also up, using https://github.com/martin-helmich/prometheus-nginxlog-exporter
would be nice to see the numbers go up :)
Let us know your findings when you did!
i’m now looking into logging more specific http request data. Maybe https://github.com/martin-helmich/prometheus-nginxlog-exporter?
I use namecheap’s email service privateemail since a couple of years. Google workspace was great, but don’t need the other features anymore and this is fifth of the price https://www.namecheap.com/hosting/email/
every instance is sharing in the traffic to browse the fediverse. Not one service is responsible for serving content, you (the instance admin) are only serving for your members.
The downside of this is there is a huge amount of replicated data stored everywhere. Content of popular communities will be scraped by and stored on many many servers, filling up servers and increasing storage and bandwith bills for all those servers
14 days later, my postgres directory was 12GB. I was still on 18.1. Updated to 18.3 just now. Postgres directory was downscaled to 2.6GB !!! Thank you Lemmy dev’s and contributors !!
