Migrating pictrs from block storage to object? (rabbitea.rs)

Hey everyone, new instance admin here after following the Ansible setup.

I'm curious about how to switch from block storage for images to object storage - it's marked as possible in the documentation but I'm not sure how to do so when the application is dockerized (as it is on a standard install.)

Any other instance admins have advice?

A few days ago I heard from a BeeHaw.org admin that their whole instance only takes 25GB right now. But it's always good to be prepared to scale up I suppose.

Did you look at the pict-rs filesystem command? I haven't tried it but from the pict-rs docs it looks like it does exactly what you want.

It appears the version of pict-rs used in the ansible build is an older one with different commands. I didn't choose to upgrade it for risk of messing with Lemmy Compatibility.

Is it possible to hook up pixelfed to work with? since it is part of fediverse there should be something
