Might want to check out this issue. Honestly, I'm not sure what exactly the activity table consists of or what it does but it's been eating through everyone's disk space pretty fast.
well, indeed it could be just that. I just checked and it's size is 15GB ๐ฑ
The activity table is every message that is sent or received between your instance and the rest of the fediverse; posts, comments, votes, admin actions, etc.
Why would that be the case?
I'm not too sure as well. Most people running their own Lemmy instance probably want more config options to fit their needs. I like how much I can configure with
pictrs
straight from the docker compose file for example.
