I wonder what the stats on running a lemmy instance are.
How much time needs to be invested, how much data storage is needed, what kind of traffic volume is to be expected?

That’s a wrong interpretation of that code. There is a table call ‘activity’ that is a debug log. It does not clear comments and postings to truncate that table at 6 months. The app doesn’t read from that table, it only writes to it.
Wait, nothing lasts here on lemmy for more than 6 months!? I swear I’ve seen much older stuff here?
The person you replied to is wrong. That 6 months has nothing to do with removing old comments or postings.
Pretty sure OP-comment misinterpreted the code. My best guess is that they’re simply pruning an index or something like that.
