My pictrs volume got quite huge and I wanna delete pics cached from other instances. The thing is I’m not sure which pics are from my instance and which aren’t, because they all have cryptic filenames. Anyone knows of a way to differentiate?

I’m reading about this now. Thank you.
Do you put cloudflare between the VPS and Backblaze or is their website just referring to “CDN and compute partners” between the VPS and the end users? … Or both?
To get it completely free it would need to be:
Because Lemmy does not have a way to have all media served from a different url/subdomain (like a CDN). Your setup will be:
Basically just put cloudflare infront of your vps, and cache everything.
That means if a user uploaded a 10MB file, it would go though your VPS, get uploaded to backblaze. When a user looks at the uploaded image url, on the first request it gets requested from blackblaze, via your vps, and then gets cached on Cloudflare.
Then any extra requests from then on will be via Cloudflare. So you will technically be charged for some api requests and 1x 10MB of egress traffic.
Sounds like a normal setup then. Just have CF in front of the VPS. Thanks!
I’m reading about Canadian hosting laws around user generated content and it doesn’t seem like we have the same protections the US or EU has. I’m still reading but my big concern is legal trouble because of end users. If I don’t selfhost for the community I’ll offer to help an instance I like.
Thanks again!
