If I were to create my own instance federated with all the other instances, as of today, how much data would I be storing, since I would make a copy of all the content?
I know this will vary a lot, but I’m looking for a ballpark figure to have an idea. I don’t think it would be a lot, but I can’t find an estimate anywhere.

Does the Fediverse not allow closing out threads after a while? I just assumed they had an “age out” feature.
Once something ages out it could be dumped as static data basically and compressed even.
