Disk space is definitely not an issue for us w/ postgres, or any text data really. The entire wikipedia english text data, is ~20GB. Images are the main disk-space concern for servers.

A backup of lemmy.ml's DB is only ~1.8 GB currently, and that's 3+ years of data.

We have no plans to move away from postgres, and lose all of its features and performance.
